Clean the work bench????? Now that's just all kinds of crazy! How will Arch find anything?

 

[archbuilder]

I feel I'am in good company!

Well tomorrow the cleaning lady comes....so it was preclean night......had to haul the pizza boxes out the the trash and pick up my socks lol! I did sand down the toe boards and put the last coat of epoxy on them. So I made a bit of progress. I think tomorrow night I will be working on putting the last coat of varnish on the seats.

 

[archbuilder]

Put what I hope is the last coat of varnish on the seat bases tonight.....slowly getting there!

 

[pekstrom]

She's really coming together nicely arch! You did tighten the bolts for the carburetor, right? :lol:

 

[archbuilder]

fairly sure, but now I will have to check tomorrow!

 

[mickyryan]

dont you hate when some one hits you with a question like that ... its like after you left and wife says did you leave stove on?
of course my answer would be i never touch it that's a woman's thing, and then i get to enjoy complete silence on said road trip

:lol: I hate it myself. My daughter tends to take every opportunity to poke at me that way.

I was pretty disappointed in myself when I found the bolts on my engine not very tight this last time.
And I'm sure y'all know, but I intended it as a joke to poke a bit of fun at myself. :facepalm:

 

[Baylinerchuck]

Wow she is looking sharp.

 

[archbuilder]

Thanks Chuck!

Work got in the way this week but I did get the seat bottoms varnished and the toe boards complete other than carpet.


I then carefully closed the hinge and put double sided tape on the top of it.


I then carefully sat the seat bottom in place where I wanted it and stuck it to the double sided tape. After that I carefully opened the seat, removed the masking taped and flipped the seat bottom upside down.


I used the center drill, and then removed the hinge and double sided taped. After that I put a coulpe screws in, drilled and put in the balance of the screws on both halves of the hinge.

This is the tape I used.

I guess I missed the upholstery work Arch....the seats look great!

 

[archbuilder]

Lol that was last summer! Yes this has taken a while Zool!

 

[sphelps]

Smart thinking on the hinge Arch !

 

[pekstrom]

Wow! That looks awesome! And yeah, I really like the upholstery on those seats too. They're going to look great in the boat.

 

[oldrem]

Very smart way to do the hinges! Will have to "file" that idea.

 

[kcassells]

Very nice Arch!

Looks fantastic Arch, been following the build and your ability to detail this entire process is second to none. Can't wait to see her splashed..
