Default Re: 1974 23 CC - project

Strick - I know you're bustin my balls . . . Wish you we're here to keep the momentum going. I tried a few new things like putting the ears on the bracket (where it was hard to mud) and then using the brad nailer to staple MDF on a flat MDF board for the swim platform. Other than the shape of the stringers . . . I think everything was business as usual. I added some of that super absorbent fiberglass cloth into the swim platform and that seems to have worked well. Couldn't find super-sculpy anywhere! Oh yeah I used Maguires car wax instead of Part-All and that worked well too. I got a joiner a while back and that helped cut some nice angles on the MDF. I used a neat little trick too to put a 13/14 degree angle on the front face of the swim platform.

Those Pallet Racks make Kick Arse 8ft long adjustable height work benches. Craigslist $25 uprights and $25 for a pair of rails. They can hold 5000 or 7000 lbs (can't remember which) which is about the same as that old folding card table
