I built my first stitch and glue boat about 3 years ago. The process is addicting. I now have 2 kayaks and the original boat.
@xgtmg3 жыл бұрын
When I do stitch and glue I empty the contents of a caulk tube then refill it with the glue. Applies more evenly and gets into the crevices. After I get the glue on I use a plastic spreader to finish up. Saves time on sanding and makes for a stronger and better appearance. Nice canoe by the way. Hope you get many years of enjoyment from it.

I understand the lower curvature of the lower side panel (follows the shape of the bottom). But how "did you get" the upper curvature. And is the lower curvature of the upper side panel just follow the upper curves of the lower panels ? My guess is no.., since the two panels are bent very differently.

have my design in mine.. I want to have the lightest. yet strongest possible. what size of marine ply would you suggest.. and is it worth fiberglassing the whole lot using finer ply. mine will be 16 ft.

hi.. just wanted to know how much did your canoe end out weighing. and what size of ply you used. also did the fiberglass added a lot of weight
@davidegessa2 жыл бұрын
Idk the weight; ply size is a single sheet of ply (about 2.5mx1.8m)

@@davidegessa thats not what I asked. What was the thickness of the ply.? How much weight did the fiberglass added.. was it much better with the fiberglass. How heavy was the final product

first time build here, got the stitching in place, what glue do i use to seal the joints, or is this done with an epoxy resin, if resin, will any type be okay ?? thanks
@davidegessa Жыл бұрын
It is epoxy resin mixed with microbaloons; I think you can use other types of resin, but it's better to use epoxy to increase curing time
