Default Re coring

Well if you are not going to repaint
Then this is what I would do.
1 . measure the height of the cap to deck, then make some chocks or stands to hold up and realign...

2. Take a 4" cutting wheel with a very thin dimond blade. Or cutoff wheel and cut the vertical supports out. Just enough. Say 4-5" from top .

3 ..then take a 4" cutoff wheel and cut the core out from underneath. Careful.not to cut through top.. Just score it and remove bottom skin..

4. once all scored all around take a chisel and hammer and remove core..you may get lucky and get most of it out on a few good hits...if you have the bottom skin off and there is balsa still there.. Change out the 4" cutoff and put a 4" twisted wire cup on and grind all the remaining core off..those wire cups wreak havoc on balsa...

5.once clean grind with 36grit /and clean up dust wipe it down..

Now make a pattern on a table, not sure if you have a layup table. But make a pattern out of cardboard
