Tons of questions!! Help please
So Im still confused about the stringers and transom and have a million questions.
Transom
With the slight curve of transom Ive been told to start with 1/4" ply as it will easly bend to the exisiting outter skin. What do the pros say?
Here is the layup Ive been thinking
outter skin, resin & mat? or glue?, 1/4" ply, using a/a or a/b fir,resin & mat? or glue?, 1/2" ply, resin & mat, 1/2" ply, resin & mat, 1/2", resin & mat, till i get 2.5", told thats the thickness i need to safely hang a floation bracket..need advice there too....Should i fillet the edges of each transom ply as i go? tabbing each piece as I go? 1708 for the outter skin x 2
Stringers
are they one single piece of ply? 1"? what ive seen on a few builds If so how do you tie in two pieces for your lenght?
For instance, did you make a "bed" for the stringers? is epoxy glue good enough for the bed? or use mat & resin?
should the old glass encapsulating the old stringers be completely removed?
Keep up the great work and thanks again for any input!
Thnaks a million for the help!
