Hope all had a great summer. Still plugging away at it here. Has a mild setback with cutting the coosa. MAKE SURE YOU USE A CARBIDE TIP BLADE
. Had my jig saw blade heat and bend causing me to have cut the top shorter than i wanted. Which in turn made me rethink how the cap was going to attach, More paralysis by analysis. Finally just said F-it and move forward. Its only glass and if it doesn't work out. Grind it out and start over. I ended up glassing one layer exterior of transom with a 3" overhang at the top and mounted waxed melamine outside perpendicular to the ground and a few more layers from the inside so the cap has 2" of straight glass to mount to, just like the sides. We will see how it turns out in the am. Also looking forward to a cold front so I can mix up the resin for the transom core. Its all cut, sized, and mounting braces ready to squeeze.
