A second project. I will make a cabosil filler and attempt to pre-radius this thing before taping over it with woven tape.

Re: Woods Skoota 32DM
So, busy day.
I got the hatch hinge fills done.
Fixed a hydraulic hose on a mower.
And these..
Cabosil, 6 oz glass and peelply on the beam locker honeycomb bottom Pic out of order, this was pulling some cabosil to make it round before glassing. Setting bog in the hinge cutouts with cold temp epoxy. 6 oz glass on the locker end panel insides Aft beam locker coosa 20# density lid got 6 oz glass Wasted quite a bit of bog. I hate to, but it happens now n then if I try to get a lot done. This was not the cold weather stuff.

Well, today I had some sanding and got the panels back under vac.
I had some i terruptions as well.
This is the back side and no need for any wrap and the glass is 6 oz, so not much gained pulling out resins.

I was wondering what you are doing with a camper in your build tent then I realized it is the cabin. That is a big boat.

Ply shots. 1.5" core cabin backbone.
Ply vertical. Beefy, heavy, but spanning and supporting a lot of weight. Needs one more tabbing/reinforcement month of May!
