Fairing and filling 6

To get the plastic used for the plating to curve nicely short filler pieces were fitted into the cells of the twinwall and the plating sheets were toothed to slot in above them - the fillers were sized to make a snug fit for the 'teeth'.

Also some more of the larger plastic pipe was again part-sliced (as for the bow parts) to make it flexible in one direction - vertical in this case - and glued to the aft end of the straight bilge pieces. For now they were left free at the other end.
