This would be easy for an oval or circular coaming, but for Guillemots (and I think Redfish designs, too) that have pointed ends, it would be hard to wrap the lamination around the corner.
: Instead of weaving the butt joints, I think a more uniform rendering is
: achieved by starting the 1/8" strip w/ a long(say 3in) taper. Then
: make sure the ends are randomly spaced around the circumference( so
: they're not readily found), but all you have to do is keep winding and
: winding until the desired width is reached. The last end can taper back to
: itself say at the back. Aside from this last taper, or maybe even
: notwithstanding, I think it will be hard to find the joints or see where
: it starts or stops. Obviously no fitting is required, and is easy for us
: dumber folks. A nice uniform consistent result.
: (I'm using the approach shown on that recessed coaming dwg)
