Todd,

That sounds like a good idea from here. If building from plans, perhaps you could use a lesser grade of plywood for the deck form. Screws might be easier to remove? Keep us posted.

: Can i tack my ply deck on with some brads but no glue, cover it with wax
: paper and then lay up a strip built deck (with the tape to hold it
: together method) on top of it? It would kill two birds with one stone for
: me. After I glass the strip built deck i would be able to pull it off and
: use it as a form to make "Vaclav style" hatches. Any info.
: appreciated, Todd
