In Response To: Strip: starting the deck (Mike Thomas)
Hey I just realized on the front of my yukon the bottom is glued to the bow stem piece well it projects up through the bottom into the deck how do I attach the deck strips if I glue them I won`t be able to remove it from the mold unless I cut the bow stem piece
I've cut through the stem with a fine-tooth (Japanese style) handsaw on some builds.
When the time comes to bond the hull & deck together, just glue the stem back together with epoxy and appropriate (microfibers, cabosil,wood flour ?) filler.
If you are careful with your saw cut, a very small bit of work with a flat sanding block will clean up and blend the joining areas before re-bonding.
