The problem with building up large pieces is they are too big to fit on my table, and they tend to be warped. I really struggled to glue two large pieces together earlier on, because one had about a 3/4" warp. That convinced me that I have to glue them up one layer at a time.

The main piece will be about 12 feet tall when it is all together. The 2 foot nose piece is flat and I need to keep access to the motor bay for doing things like the front suspension, anyway.
