You can get these all the way to 20", but that will be really hard to keep flat. At 20", you sort of need a two handled trowel. But these work well in a progression to like 12". After that, or depending on the width, I use the 21-22" flexi.

This one is about 120 bux, but I like it. I also have the 39" for my work.

This kind of thing also works well for spreading fairing compound:

I already have the 22" flexisander. I really like it. I went ahead and ordered the 22" filling board. I'll just sell both when I'm done with boat.

Re: Panga 20 Build
Setting up my jig. I have a question. The transom angle is not shown in the plans. No measurement at the top. Just the 19” at the bottom until the next station. What did you use?
Re: Panga 20 Build
The angle is taken from the end of the stringers. It is usually not given, just measure it after you cut out the stringers. There is no frame at the transom on the jig. You will attach the sides and bottom to it as you build the boat with temporary attachments to the stringers so you can take the stringers and frames out to fiberglass the inside..sharkbait2576 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 03, 2019 3:50 pm Setting up my jig.

Re: Panga 20 Build
The transom angle also comes from the part on the plans labeled MW side. You don't need the angle since all of the dimensions were given. Just cut out those two parts and you will see the angle. As long as you line the side up without the angle, with a vertical level, the angle will be where it needs to be.

Typical angle is 12-14 degrees to the waterline.

Re: Panga 20 Build
It's in pg20 ls. It's labeled MW side. These are the two peices I'm talking about. If you cut them and line them up as shown in pic, it provides the correct angle.it should look like the drawing I attached.
