: I've purchase a Guillimot Great Auk strip that is 70% complete -
: however I don't have the plans. I need to build the coaming
: riser but don't know the specifics. Will someone please suggest
: 1. total finished height of riser
: 2. thickness of ring (total; riser thickiness + ring thickness)
: 3. distance from deck to bottom of coaming ring
: Thanks in advance ... I'll upload pics later
Here's what I have done.....
Recess to bottom of coaming ring - 3/4"
Coaming ring thickness - 1/2"
Recess to top of coaming ring - 1 1/4"
I make my riser strips 2" long and glue them to the side of the recess opening. I use a small dot of hot glue to glue the riser strips to the recess and use Titebond III to glue them to each other. That will give you about 1/2" of riser to trim off after you have installed the rim.
