jan 16: interior glass

glassed the inside today. not nearly as easy as the outside was. 

i fashioned this stand to hold the stern end of the boat off of the floor and keep the skeg from breaking 

you can see it in action here. not much to it but very functional. 

then, it was all about measuring the cloth, and mixing up 16+ounces of resin. 

the cloth is so porous that its easier to shape than you might think. it was very messy though when wet. 

heres the bow. you can see the excess cloth above the garboard seam. 

i trimmed it with a straight razor but it still isnt perfect and is gonna need some sandpaper magic. 

here she is with freshly wet cloth and 

theres the final product

needs sandpaper next.
