Using the clippers, snip the spacers from the 1/8th strip at slight, parallel angles and fit and glue them under the gunwale, against the strake and resting on the thwart. Sand to a best fit and the glue.

When all has set, the thwarts are square to the centerline and the fillers square with the thwarts and hull. Now cut and place the knees. The most accurate way to achieve the best knees is to first cut as many of them as you can all at once and then pick the best ones as you go.

Using a razor saw, slice each knee from the formed curve to a width of 1/16th. This will require a few light (drawn)first-passes with the saw to score the wood. (I have found that the big handles that come with razor saw blades are more destructive to the blade than helpful in cutting, so I don’t use them.)
