Hey All,
so about a year and a half ago I acquired two big hunks of metal from a company that I worked for who produced, machined, and finished commercial wood doors out of NJ. When a shop has to finish a door theres always a dilemma, how do we finish both sides quickly and carefully. So many years back someone came up with the door rotisserie. It's basically a stand that you lay the door down and then screw the top and bottom into one of these "spits". When you're done sanding and finishing one side you flip it over and do the other.....Genius!
So why can't I apply this to kayak building and finishing?!?!?
well I was bored so I did. I was given one of their surplus stands (these were all custom made many years ago by a bunch of high school metal tech students)
Check out the pictures and you can see how it works.

I used it last night with a coat of epoxy, I coated one side and then gave it a few hours, flipped it and did the other side. It worked quite flawlessly I might add, I have it held in place with some all thread and held in position on that thread by a couple of bolts and washers. Its actually very sturdy to my surprise, I think this is because of the decent amount of weight the stands have on them. I'm probably going to use this to varnish or spray finish the kayak.

Let me know what you think
