    IF your talking about bending them to the shape of the boat I find doing it in laminations easy if you don't have a big steamer.

    yea bending them into shape really only the ones on the bow, do you laminate with epoxy and clamp them together or just wood glue

    Yep that's it, I would go with the epoxy much stronger and more water resistant.
