Re: Skin-on-Frame: sewing on coaming flange
In Response To: Skin-on-Frame: sewing on coaming flange (Paul MacIntyre)
: Hi All,
: Cuningham recomends sewing the 3/8"square wood flange/ lip on
: the coaming with the stiches spaced 2" o.c. this seems way
: to widely spaced to me. I'm thinking that 3/4-1" o.c. would
: be better. That would put a lot of holes 3/16" from the top
: edge of the 7/16" thick coaming. I wondered if that would
: weaken the coaming to much. Both the coaming and flange are ash.
: What do you think?
: thanks
Just recently, for whatever reason, I've seen several topics on I think the Greenland kayak forum all saying they sew it on at 1" intervals. I've got no experience doing that, just passing it along.
