Here’s some shots of bracing the top.

Starting off with our bracing diagram. Some of us need help with our dot to dots.




Then I glue all the braces in one direction.




Then the ones in the other.




Then I get a sharp pointy metal rod that is not for fingers to shape the Port Orford braces.




Thanks.

Sorry for the dumb question but what do the sort of highlighted areas mean in the first photo?

Thank you,
