: Hello All

: Finally started the fun part, and thanks to this board, it's almost like

: good as this to learn other skills...8-)

: Attempting to go cove and beadless as well, so far so good...but then I'm not
: to the serious chines yet. Using a modified dremel router/base to bevel
: the in- place strip tops, and plane to bevel the next strip during
: installation.

: Using electric glue in place of staples, so far working very well. The few
: forms (seen in photo) with wedges are to hold the strips tight while glue
: cools.

: happy trails

Ron I really like you clamping system also. I may be wrong but I don't remember any thing like yours being discussed. I wish I had a few of those when I was stripping my boat. Good luck-

John
