Hey now,,, Not much to report. Grinded down all the nubs from making the filets on the starboard side hull. Yea that's right..I said it, I need to use the correct lingo.
Gonna clean up and do some glass tom. or the weekend.

Just remember...the grinding really never ends. Keep the work as clean as you can to reduce the grinding. Funny so you have 15-20 minute pot life so all your wires are poping saying...got to get it in before it trips. So drips happen.
Happy Boat Fixin says I!
Acetone it out after a good vacuum yob.

So dinner anytime you're around Delco, Pa and yes every leetle bit counts. Did another wet on wet for the stringer. I wished I had done it on the flat but I was anxious to get it in. Had enough resin to do another single pc. of stringer biut no pic of that.
Need to make another run to US Comp;

Got ya! Crab time here too! This weekend me thinks I'll crack a few. Went back into the cave today...man sweated my ...off. Got tired real fast of catching drops in my glasses and spotting the wet glass. Add a 6 and 9" tab on the foremost starboard stringer. Next will be to tabs all the corners. Then onto the PORT side. Not much to see, tough spot.

Hi Minch, Always a pleasure to see you swing by.
So today was not real exciting but necessary. I cleaned out the boat. Tired of the dust, glue, scraps and glass bits laying around. Actually was a good day for it cause it was raining most the morning. Also got to see where the new leaks come in from the cover. So prob. reset the cover this weekend also.
Very nice thogh to see some old glass work that was sitting under me ply/seat/shelf area around where the chairs will go.

I haven't been able to order supplies yet but there is always something to do ya know. So after I pressured wash the boat out yesterday and let dry out I decided to cut my stringers and bulkheads down to new deck level. Was kinda fun...I am by no-means a carpenter and a sawzall is my tool of choice... 2.jpg
