    Well, Tuesday i started working on the stringers for the boat and i think its coming out very well. I used Nidacore 1/2". I cut 2 sheets up to make one of the stringers. They are 3" tall by 3" wide and about 14'. I glued them together using polyester and 1.5 oz mat.

    I had left the sides of the coffin box/ gas compartment to guide me and use them as a level for the new floor. But it was very hot today and the heat got to me. I fell on top of them and broke them, so i got the grinder and they where gone. I really really regreat it. Now i feel like its going to be alot harder for me to level out the new floor.
