Re: Yet Another Transom Job in the Works - ?ions
FishJack - you might be all done digging out the trench by now, but, from doing mine, a) it's the worst part of the job, and b) I had pretty good success, using a grinder like you showed, getting down to the bottom in one spot, and then, using a wide bladed wood chisel, knocking slices off, working my way out from the grinder digout, kind of like taking slices off the end of a stick of butter - even still, that part alone was about three nights of arm busting chisel work.
I'm sure you already know this, but before glassing anything back in, -surface prep, surface prep, surface prep-sanding and acetone wipes - critical to good adhesion.
keep the pix coming !!!
