: I like to glass the deck before working on the coaming. After
: building the coaming wall and applying a fillet of thickened
: epoxy, a bias-cut strip of glass easily conforms to the
: coaming/deck joint. Are you going to build a wooden or a
: composite coaming?
: I agree with the others; that's some beautiful work! What kinds of
: wood did you use? Are the lightest colored strips Maple? That's
: going to look even better when you wet it out. Keep the pictures

Agree with Pedro, definately glass before. Decks usually have enough odd contours to deal with, don't need to make it more complex.
Also agree, very pretty :)
