More fun then a box of assholes id say

Yea it is def kinda like that Mick. Pouring here all day, 40's. Got in and finished the port side ceiling. Decided its a better day to fart and watch tv or something. 1 hot lamp got a drip in and fried. Its a sign says I.
Wrap it up.

Halogen?

Halogen?

Nahhh the old fashioned big arse bulbs. Actually the switch smoke out. That's why you cannot walk away from this stuff while its doing its job.

 

[kcassells]

Time to go back out and start the starboard side....tons of fun says I. :blue:

 

[kcassells]

Well I sorta pussed out. No glassing today. Prepped all the glass sheet cuts for the next job then trimmed out all the overhangs from the port side.
So on the overage hangs I saved all the palm sander pcs. of paper that were good in the mid sections. Used them for the approach. I go at it at a 45 or whatever angle that cuts of the overhangs smooth as ass I mean glass. Bad be I says I. .
Got to busy with a simple slow cook "Tuscan Chicken" recipe that of course I modified and its smelling pretty delish.
Pics later after mickyryan posts his pics.

Got busy today and did glass starboard side ceiling. Cleaned up the port side. Here's port side.

 

[kcassells]

Here's starboard side wetted out. beasty job says I overhead.

I dare say I'm a bit curious. What is the purpose of glassing the underside of the ceiling?

 

[kcassells]

REM Just to waterproof the waterproof. I dare say if it's in the ocean Mother Natures gonna get me.
Well in addition I want all corners to be strong, like stringers and bulkheads. This top will take a lot of abuse. . Ocean can be a nasty.
So the underside of the roof will be covered with fabric so the detail to the glass finish is not a biggy for me.

That's a GREAT question Eric!

LOL...I just realized I mimicked your :dare say" line.....very subliminal says I!

 

[kcassells]

just decided to sit in the boat with the heat on. Pondering.... So If I decide to put a ply finish over the glass on the interior port and starboard sides what is the best way to adhere it? Was even thinking a laminate like mica or Wilson art. Thinking I want to use teak ply.
Does teak ply get treated just like regular teak with oil?
Any suggestions?
Ruff will be fabric. Or maybe a shag rug, purple.

 

[kcassells]

Kinda like this
But purple, diggin it. Groovy.

Butt the advantage is all I need to do for gauges and accessories is Velcro...right?
Thanks for the phone time today Mick.
Was outtoday hopefully doing almost the last pb hairy filling. Weather is nice 37 deg and clear. Got too hot so decided to wrap it up for the day.
Can you guys believe Micky actually posted pics?
Geez....@Zool might stop in...….

 

[kcassells]

Wow…. feel like I missed 2 days of posting and reading. Musta been da mushrooms?

So If I decide to put a 1/4" ply finish over the glass on the interior port and starboard sides what is the best way to adhere it? Was even thinking a laminate like mica or Wilson art. Thinking I want to use teak ply.​

Hey Eric,
Thanks for the reply. I figured at least 1 boat here on the Ibots forum had a wood cabin interior.
