Video: Skin on Frame Shearwater build, Day 5


Skin on Frame Shearwater build, Day 5) 2hrs
.
Nothing terribly exciting here today. Just spent a couple hours sorting through lumber and cutting it into strips then cutting tapers, then gluing it up into longer lumber for the gunwales and the upper stringer.  For these particular joints, I thickened the epoxy to about the texture of mayonnaise with cab o sill.  I would rather be gluing up a different dimension of wood right now, but these are what I was able to make out of what I had.
