Scot, Thanks for the response. I used Plascore PP Honeycomb as my core material. I'm unsure what you mean by green stage but I'm going to guess...
I'm considering doing another boat build via stitch-n-glue using epoxy. One of the issues I faced with my last two builds was trouble with...
Par, pipe...that's brilliant.
So when I built my duck boat I made a minor error. I used a one-way garboard. [IMG] This is a problem because when I hunt marsh grass,...
Tell me about it. At a certain point (when i'm laying down in the boat, I actually wear a hazmat suit because I'm rolling and scooting around....
Sanding is definitely not my favorite part of boat building though it's unavoidable. Wet sanding isn't an option for me as I only have my home...
When you look at the amount of sandpaper you burn through, vacuum filters (even with a dust collector), respirator filters, time, etc. peel ply is...

When you meet with the Game Warden for inspection of homemade boat, BE SURE TO TAKE RECEIPTS FOR MATERIALS. A close friend of mine is a...

I'm trying to find the metal piece soldered to bus the mail quick-disconnect terminals on the switches and reset buttons for switch panels....
Before anyone flames me, I know this is an old post. I just wanted to contribute. One might try using composite decking instead of wood.
Last night I applied a think "sticky coat" and laid my kevlar down. Rolled it smooth and tight with a laminating roller, looks gorgeous. Weave...
I'm not sure what you mean by spinner. Is it similar to a wire whisk for scrambling eggs?
The amounts I mix vary based on what I'm doing. My fillets tend to be rather lengthy, so there are times I might mix a quart, but then add wood...
