Skin-on-Frame: threading deck lines (Bungee)
By:Don betz
Date: 11/11/2012, 5:18 pm

Hi, I'm having a heck of a time trying to thread my bungees through my sliders. I know I'm supposed to be using leather, but I want to use bungee. anyway, I know there is a trick to tying off the ed to pull it through the holes but I can't seem to figure it out. Anyone have any pictures? or a good description would do also, although I do much better with pictures :) thanks a lot!

I built this boat last august and am just now getting around to finishing the deck-lines/sliders. I've been paddling the heck out of it but am now about to finally put the finishing touched on it. when I do, I will share some pictures of the final product and from the build.

thanks again,
