: Hoo boy, as usual, what looks like a simple thing turns out to be very, very
: complex if you let it be. I KNOW I'm not good enough to even bother trying
: for the perfect angles, so no reason to even go there. I don't mind a dark
: even line along the outside seams and I can see how a continuous filled
: gap would look better than an occasional spot. I can't see wiring,
: unwiring, rewiring multiple times to get the perfect bevel. Not with six
: panels to wire and a 16 and a half foot boat. So maybe I'll just put a
: modest bevel on it with a sanding block and see how it goes.

: Once again, thanks to you all. I'll let you know how it comes together.

Hello Patsy, What everyone has not talk about is if you made a perfect joint,you than must still radius the outside of the joint so the glass does not make the the sharp turn, this is not as good. It is not as strong and pain get right in the glass and resin stage. Use the sanding block, much more zen, from a man useing power tools to make money, but finds with hand tools, I get better results and is almost as fast on yaks. May the wood grain be with you young jeddi.
