Hes Moved
Posted on 13.16 by atra
Well, hes moved. And let me tell you, that guy had a lot of crap. I knew the guy was a pack rat, but I never fully realized exactly how much stuff he had in that tiny little house. Moving the contents of his house, garage and shed from their original locations to the U-Haul and two pods was like watching a marshmallow expand in a fire, or when a magician pulls that scarf out of his sleeve. All I can...

Glassing two days and counting
Posted on 23.56 by atra
I did this first coat in the garage, and then picked it up and took it outside on a nice sunny day to see if I could get the epoxy to cure a little quicker. My technique was to use a plastic spreader to spread the epoxy. 1st coat sucked it right up, the second coat (applied today) used very little more glass to fill almost to...

Glass tape applied
Posted on 11.44 by atra
Put on 3" glass tape on all seams, set in epoxy. Sanding took 30 minutes with the random orbit sander connected to the shopvac. I hope to be able to move to the interior next week. My current thinking is a coat of 2 oz glass to protect the wood from dings. Still painting it however, I have decided against the clear coat. ...

Lazy Days of Summer
Posted on 20.10 by atra
Thats not really a phrase that applies in our situation, but it sounded good nonetheless. Greg and I are still working on the boat, and we are still taking our time. The inside of the hull has been glassed, and we have test-fitted the stringers and frame pieces. Next weeek, we plan to tack the stringers into place, and then after that, it will be time to secure the stringers and frame pieces to the...
