Very interesting idea. I was wondering how much could be covered by the
taped seam. Also the fact that some overlap is built-in to the design to
be trimmed later means that for at least half the cuts I don't need to
be too accurate.

Thanks

On the first stitch and glue dinghy I built, I did it slow and carefully

The second I used just a jigsaw.

The third I used a jigsaw and tried to go as fast as possible. Errors
greater than 1/4" were trimmed with the jigsaw. But otherwise it all
got hidden in the tape seam anyway.
