: Hi guys,
: I need to order more Mas epoxy from CLC and while I'm at it, maybe
: material to thicken epoxy for coaming riser fillet. I have wood
: flour and cell-o-fill but am wondering what you, my mentors use.
: It seems that the fillet will be visible and don't want to mess it
: up.
: As always, any advice or thoughts greatly appreciated,
: Jim

: I started this Cape Ann August 21, 2010. Time to finish it, don't
: ya think?

You can also cut a strip with a triangular section, about 1/4" faces, of some flexible wood, wrap it around the coaming in the joint. Where the bend gets too tight notch the back of it and when it fits glue in place.
