: Do you drill deck line holes in the frame before or after skinning? Thanks in
: advance

Why drill the holes at all? Find places where you can just wrap a loop or two around the frame, and tie it on there. You keep the full strength of the frame (no holes), and it is just as fast to do.

Just a thought.
