This is the end form for the bow. Note that it is inverted. To secure the end form, I ended up attaching some small blocks to the end form and then using screws to mount the end form onto the strongback and against form 3. Note the smaller blocks at the bottom of the frame. Screws go through the form and into these blocks. In addition screws go through the form itself, at an angle, into the strongback. The result is that form is mounted to the form in a number of different places, and seems to be quite sturdy.

This is the end form for the stern. I attached this one differently. Because I had the fit so close, it made the most sense to simply glue it. So, I fired up the hot glue gun, slathered glue all over the place, and slid the form to the proper location. After this, I ran a few screws through the perpendicular form (on the right of the picture) to secure it.
