hey Paul;
sounds like a bunch of extra work that you really don't need to do.
the b-cord starts at the outside of the shear strip in a block clamped to strip. then it goes up, over and down to the inside to the station form and is clamped to it (the station form)with a spring clamp at the angle and placement required. a halo form near the bow and stern look after those nasty hollows that never want to co-operate.
this system makes the job go a little slower but who's in a big hurry anyways
i've been working on my spring run since last spring, but, i have other boats. don't we all?
: You can make easily moved posts for holding hte ends of the bungee cords from
: inexpensive 1/4 inch bolts. Get some that are 2 or 2 1/2 inches long, and
: a matching number of regular nuts and wing nuts. You'll need two for each
: bungee cord.
: Drill a 5/16 inch hole in your forms, spin a nut about halfway onto the bolt,
: and poke the bolt into the hole. The nut keeps it from going in all the
: way. Hold it in place with the wingnut, and you'll have an easily moveable
: metal post. After adding several rows of strips you may want ot move the
: bolt to a new position. Drill a new hole, spin off the wingnut and presto!
: you have another bungee mount.
