: You guys seem like you have been bored the last couple of days, so I guess
: I'll ask a question.

: I'm about ready to glass the deck on a 14' great auk. First I need to put a
: fillet around the coaming lip. I saw Nick using glass yarn, some people
: just thicken up epoxy... I have a large container of elmers "wood
: filler" and was wondering if I could use that. It matches my wood and
: dries hard, but might end up a little brittle. Are there any other simple
: ways to make a fillet, I'm looking for a simple method... and I don't need
: it to be clear.

For my coaming fillet, I bought a single yard of 18oz woven roving from US Composite. The strands are pretty thick on this stuff. I put some epoxy in the joint to make it sticky, then pulled threads out of the roving and laid them into the epoxy end to end, going around teh coaming a few times until I had the desired build up. It came out clear and seamed to do a good job.
