: G'Day Dave.
: Worse places in the world than Fiji, thats for sure. Would love to
: do some island hopping over there.
: Bead & cove. why bother. There are many builders, myself
: included, that just bevel the edges.
: Haven't had Carpal tunnel issues but had tendonosis pretty bad for
: awhile. Physio sorted it out initially but switching over to a
: wing paddle and developing a proper forward stroke has been my
: saviour. I even race a bit nowadays.
: Cheers
G'day Craig, I was beveling - tried using a plane, but that was what was causing the pain. My best method seemed to be to just put a stip on, bevel the top to suit the next stip, using a hand held chisel and repeat. Slow but effective.
Thanks - if I have any problems with the paddling I'll try modifiying the stroke till I get it right.
