Next favorite tool for this stuff is a Makita 5" grinder. Baby grinder I should say. Load the PSA backed 40 grit and let her eat..

I know, no glamorous teak here. Small repair cost about $200 in materials with about half the materials left over to build a bow pulpit. Quart of gel was $36. It has the wax added so it would dry tack-free. Not sure what that will do to the shelf life. I thought I would share, it is a labor of love really, not so much work, and instantly gratifying. That is something that I need from time to time... A completed project. Thanks for looking..

I am constantly amazed at the level of skill that various people here have when it comes to projects like this. Ridge, those repairs are a thing of beauty and a joy to behold. I could only wish to have half that amount of skill. I'm really pretty good on a milling machine or a lathe, or most metal working machines, but I totally suck on things like you are doing. A tip of the old Bosun's hat to you sir. Well done!!

MJ or Valiant, I still can't see any of Ridgerunner's pic's, when I click on them the site acts like I'm not logged in.
