Hammer... stop that... you're killing me.

I errr...ummmm... reviewed your post "Lefty's Day on the V" with one of the sargents at work today.

His comment after a few moments of silence was "Wow!".

Thats all I have to say on that matter ::)

LOL, Tuna, Glad the guys at work are finding some enjoyment. ;D ;D ;D ;D

SKOOL, my total measurement from skin to skin was only 2 1/4. Did you have to cut the stringers back at all.

Hey SKOOL, your resin and micro ballons, will that bond over West System ??? ??? ???
When I redo the seems where I cut out the transom, I'll lay in some cloth mixed with west system, but the finish top coat, I thought about using teh same stuff. Buddy gave me a 5 gallon bucket of it to use if I want to.

Only problem is, he says the stuff is super strong and you should only use a few drops of the hardner when mixing. Is that true ??, Dont wanna get jammed up not using the correct amount of hardner, unlike using bonda, you mix the hadner to get an even color, where there isnt a color change with resin and the micro balloons. Request input on this. ;)

i don't use West for anything crap to me, some like it but get resin from a boat builder and use it to lay up your repairs and then mix some and then add micro balloons to the mixed resin till the mix is like peanut butter. Mix you some resin up and add hardner as a test in a cup see how it sets up i always add little more than they say so it will set up but if you buy boat builders resin it will set up without hardner over time so it has to be used in a few months or it will be hard i store my resins in a refrigerator in my shop i only use for beer and resin ;D
