: there is a few more hours spent scarfing?

: - all right, I'll butt out . . .

I like your [i]angle[/i] so I'll [i]join[/i] you! I find that scarfing adds little time, allows you to clamp twisting strips right on the boat, and makes measuring a bit more forgiving. I went back to scarfing halfway through stripping the hull on my first project.
