Default Re: Advice Need...Getting Ready to Start Restorati


All of the above info is right on. I'd like to add something as well though.

Take your time....and work cleanly.

By taking your time that means to work smarter and not necessarily harder. I have a tendency to just jump into things and figure out as I go along. Although I planned for my SC project I didn't do as much planning or work as methodically as I should have.

For instance, instead of fairing my deck inside the boat, I should have taken the deck plates laid them up on a piece of MDF or formica, then glassed them into the hull. It would have been more work initially, but this would have saved HOURS of fairing in the long run.

Also work neatly as possible, piece meal as much glasswork as you can. Try and keep everything neat...believe it or not, it shows in the end product.

I envy your project. She's a very rare, very fine craft.
