Sorry, no pictures of putting the plywood on the frames


Here is a picture of the epoxy mixing station. A garage sale electric drill ($2) a paint mixer, (1.50) a piece of pvc pipe (0) and a cup to catch the drips. Works great, set at slow speed so no bubbles and a pleasure to use.



Here are good friend Pete, me and my son James putting the first layer of biaxial glass on the hull. We mixed lots of epoxy by hand until I "invented" a better system. The hull panels have already been joined together with two staggered layers of biaxial fiberglas tape
