It appears to me there too much of a gap. I think I should extend the flat to make it more snug

Is there a trick to removing the bulkheads from the SAS? I see the tab on the end where it looks like you could gently pry it open but I want to make sure before I mess something up. Sorry for all the questions but I really appreciate the help you guys provide

Bring it over ... we're neighbors. Call me first, 468-4687

What is a good source of Weld-on 16 cohesive? I can only find the stuff in the blue tube, not the red tube as is shown in many posts. Finishing up on all the flood grates and other holes in the hull. Show get tap to fix stern planes today. I am sure I am going to learn a lot by building this. More pictures to follow.-

Check your local plastic supply and fabrication shops. They will have the stuff on hand. Useful for Acrylic, but it's thick formula makes it ideal for broad-area bonding where you don't want a too active product that will evaporate away before you can get the big hull sections in alignment.

But, wait at least 30 days after you glue up the two hull halves (bows and sterns) -- gotta give the thick solvent cement time to gas off, which will produce a concave surface on the hull pieces over the glue applied areas. Ask Mark about that nasty little surprise. Once you let it settle out, you fill the trenched areas with Bondo and block sand to proper contour.

Look it over, a bunch of photos I've posted to that hosting site.

Set up your own account at this host, then copy pictures from your hard-drive to this site and then all you need do to post them to a forum post is paste the photo URL into the text of your post.

Confusing at first, but it will let you post big format pictures to your posts here and other forums.

Some examples of hosted pictures presented here:
