Here are three jpgs of the forward thwart arrangement:
1. Shows the under side of the Thwart. It is laminated from 20 mm macrocarpa, which is not a particularly strong wood, hence the additional supports.The centre upright fits between two cleats glued to the floor.

2. Shows shock cord, 5 mm diameter, led through a 6 mm hole in the seat support, runs over the top and a whipped loop hooks over a brass screw. Also shows my awful finishing and filling, I hate sanding. For some reason this image in the post preview is upside down, and the next image is rotated 90 degrees. Go figure.

3. Shows the thwart in place
