: I know I've seen it before either on this board, or on the kayakforum.com,
: but can't seem to find it again: Is there a way to fill the wiring holes
: with some substance to hide the holes, after stitching? Does epoxy with
: wood flour make an adequate match with okuome, or does one need to
: "color match" by some method? (kayak will be varnished). I plan
: to "tab" the interior fillets, and pull the wires, and then
: fill. Thanks to all, Brian
I don't bother filling all those holes. You can't make them disappear, they're irrelevant to boat strength and if you used a small enough drill bit i.e. 1/16" your epoxy saturation coat then epoxy from glassing will fill them in nicely.
