Love the wood clamps GB. Nice cheap and functional. My kind of tool.

The wood clamps and wedges work well.
However today I tripped myself up by applying epoxy glue over the outer rather than inner face of the rubbing strake laminate I was installing.
After scrapping it off as best I could, I didn't want to risk gluing the wooden clamps to it.

Love watching glue dry.
Entertainment over until next strake glue up.

Leaving for another week to Cape Sable in two days. Surprise me.
Have a great week!
It's my 75th birthday today, so the child bride and I are off to a long long lunch.
