In Response To: Just say no to spideys hammer and nails technique (Dale Frolander)

Hi Dale;

The nails I used were 3" long, and the hull & deck are less than 1/4" thick . . . A lot of the nails protrude into the cockpit and make it very uncomfortable sitting in there. Any ideas?

Best Regards, Spidey
