I just cannot figure out why this site that is based on pics and conversations cannot have a platform that accepts pics from typical base. I go to PB and they stink. Almost seems like you have to pay to play. Whats up and why can't this foru m set up a link that makes sense. ??????????????????

Yea like he said....
Cleaned up the last strake. Rolled out 1700 on the rest of the hull.









kcassells, looks like you are doing really great work on this. It looks really good. Keep on keeping on.

As for posting pictures, I stopped using PB a long long time ago for a lot of reasons I won't get into here and now. I now set my digital camera to take lower resolution pictures (less then 700kb) and after loading them up to my laptop so I can keep a total photographic history of my projects, I merely up load whatever picture I want to post on the forums without any problems. I have my boat project pictures in a lot of individual directories for easy access. Works for me.

Well lookie here GM... I used my cell like you recommended with the lower kb's or whatever they are called and not go thru photo ucket. Looks like it worked. Thank you sir!
Took out my carved up stringer, added some wood filler for the voids, sanded, acetoned it. Then did wet on wet for two layers of 1700. Also used pcs. for the 1st run with 3" or more overhangs, 5 pcs.. Be smart and don't waste. The second glass was 2 pcs. Very Happy! Especially with my new photo ability.
Hats Off ;gm280 :yo::yo:

Well I set the stringer then PB it into place. You may be able to see the second layer of glass from wet on wet from yesterday. Also made nough PB to work other filets. Having fun going to get unglued and play with other chores....Just looked at post. You really cannot see the second glass. Runs right up to the new installed stringer.
So as I glass in/tab the stringers there will be like 4 layers of glass between each stringer on hull.
Nice!!
Then I still have to install bulkheads in between stringers so some areas after tabbing will be 6 deep.
