In Response To: Strip: planing interior hull (Tim)
: Hey Folks,
: I am currently building an 8’ strip pram using cove & bead WRC. Planing
: down the exterior seems to be a no-brainer. I just bought a low-angle
: plane to avoid tear out.
: Getting the inside smooth enough to scrape or sand looks like it is going be
: more challenging. I have heard of hoof knives and other various curved
: tools, but would appreciate any thought you have. The boat is 4’ at the
: widest point, so the radius will not be as tight as that found at the
: chine of a kayak.
: Thanks much!
: Tim
A random orbital sander with 60 grit works well.
