I've been doing fiberglass my whole adult life, I've been doing it for about 34 years. I've been a pattern maker, that was before we got a CNC machine so I've learned to build the patterns by hand. I started off as a mole maker so I've got tons of tooling experience. Then against my better judgment into production lol. I can take a print in pile of materials and end up with a part that fits. So I know what I'm talking about when I say that you, sir are a Glass man. You do all the little things right the things that most people don't bother with. The things like radiusing your wood so that the laminate lays down nicely, priming thirsty wood so you don't end up with dry glass and have a great bond, fraying the mat so that you have a more consistent overlap with more aesthetically pleasing results. Not a lot of glass men left but you sir are one of the good ones. I tip my fiberglass hat to you

Wow, Thank You so Much for the kind words! Sounds like You have a Ton of experience in the Fiberglass world, so what you said really carries some weight. I literally grew up in our family's boat shop, and learned from my Father who was a professional Boatbuilder, and repairman. In a small town like I grew up in, if you don't do quality work you don't stay in business very long, so my father's standard for our work was always very high. I have noticed the same thing as You, not a lot of quality work being shown for folks to learn from out there! Glad the channel is helping people! Much appreciation for taking the time to watch and comment!

Takes years to get to this guys level trust me. You can tell how good he is all the way through the video. I especially liked the bit where he made the relief cut in the glass and put it in the bin rather than tossing it down on the floor as I’ve seen people do in UK workshops. Keeping clean with fibreglass is a key element and this guy has mastered it.

i noticed an unspoken bit of knowledge in one of his hard top plug viedos...as hes reaching long over the part...he uses the clean hand to pull back his shirt by pinching the back to stay clean. never looks to see if it clears, just knows it does. he probably should have added that tip in. ive seen new guys get lathered in glass not knowing how to handle and work with it. most of the professional laminators i know instinctively always keep one hand behind they're back, maybe holding a tip brush or something but it stays back and clean and kinda balances the body when reaching out in front of yourself for hours a day.

Very cool, I also grew up around wood skiffs as a boy. My grandfather was a commercial fisherman, and aways had flatbottom skiffs and we had a small floundering skiff made from marine ply over cypress frames and a 18 hp Evinrude. I have some great childhood memories from those boats! Thanks for sharing and for watching!

@FishBumpTV 6 ай бұрын
I will try to do something along those lines when I get a chance to, but in the meantime, we have videos here on the channel that cover those basic methods. When we put the Coosa decks in on our 29 the process is very similar to the way you would work with plywood. When we installed the fuel tank in the 29, we poured urethane foam all the way around and under it. Then the prep work on the how-to fiberglass over plywood video would apply to the final fiberglass and the recent gelcoat vids for finishing out your project. If you have some time to look back in the channel, especially in the 29-build series, I think you will learn a lot, and maybe answer some of your questions. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching!

You are correct! A/C exterior fur plywood works the best for fiberglassing. You can fill the voids on the C side with your polyester fairing putty and a light sanding to have a smooth service. Like you said you should always prime with resin to avoid a dry lay up. 😊
@FishBumpTV 6 ай бұрын
Thank you! I agree with you on the process! Lots of people just don't take the time to seal and install it properly. Not saying that marine fir is better than modern composites, but there is definitely still a place for it on many projects. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!

@@FishBumpTV i’m working on a 1986 Champion bassboat. I’m adding a hinged deck and small half-inch plywood bases for the seats. I cut out a raised lip where the seats sat. I can actually still get the original seats. The problem is the aluminum hinges just don’t hold up over time. After a few years, you’re not sitting at 90° anymore. My question is, do you think I could just seal the half inch plywood with resin only? I am also not concerned about the looks it’s function only. I don’t need any strength from fiber, so I thought the resin alone would work for those.

Great video!!! A quick tip we use that may be helpful for someone. For big pieces of glass instead of tearing and maybe tearing away too much material around the edges to help the glass blend in when wetted out. Lay the straight cut edge down and put something long with a sharp corner under it. Take a soft bristle brush and lightly rake at the edge. It'll get rid of that cut edge and give you more of a feathered edge. What about a video demonstrating cabosil, qcells, microballons , etc as a filler? Or your thoughts on it vs the pro strand?

Wish you worked at grady-white back in the day. 89, 252gt sailfish. Bracket twins, beautiful boat. When they rigged it, no holes were sealed. Plastic thru-hulls, transom scuppers were under water with the fuel at half tank, and lighter 2 strokes. What a shame, a pocket battle wagon, poorly fitted because some bone head manager needed a bigger bonus. All you got to do is build it right one time, everytime.

I have to admit I enjoy your video's. I feel better about my methods after watching several of you vids. I take a lot of time covering details, or many say over building, after watching you I may not be over building as much as I thought. More like on Par. And again I gave up on being timely and efficient. It takes as long as it takes to get it a certain way or end point. Maybe with more time things will flow better, But I don't even consider how long I spend on details and point of finish. I understand and have said from first few months. I could not afford to buy or purchase a boat built the way I am doing things. The labor would triple the cost of the vessel if factory built this way. Man I like the ball bearing on a stick., I will build one., "George gotta have one those" I enjoy the long very detailed video's. But that Ball tool is the biggest eyeopener so far. I think the poly over epoxy topic. Here is my humble opinion. As long as my build is taking,. The cure time or gassing off over the summer and by the time I get around to it and the tedious surface prep. I want to think I will be ok... Now I would not use this method in a structural application,. Ever ! (Cosmetic Only) But guys doing a quick turn around I think you are spot on it may or may not end with the best results. My thought is these products can take months to fully cure and in that process the things like amine blush that most of us do kinda understand and know how to deal with, Now. But like this topic I was clueless til I encountered it. I think in addition to being chemically non-compatible,. we have other gassing going on and in the wrong order (poly over epoxy)is like getting oil and water to mix. It is not optimal at best. Enough folks in the know like yourself have seen 1st. hand that those 2 only play well together epoxy over poly. in that sequence. or Order. So many, like myself was oblivious to this little detail when I 1st. started this journey. Thank you covering this.

I'd buy one of your boats. I've been building a DIY punt designed by a naval architect and have access to his knowledge through private forums. Every thing your doing here is what we are being taught. It's a good demonstration and very similar proceedure for installing plastic bungs. It's a labour intensive job, it just needs time....

Top tip from me. Wear TWO latex gloves on each hand. When the top glove gets loaded up with strands simply remove and you have a clean pair on already. Any second saved by not reaching for the glove box is precious seconds especially when you are working in warmer temperatures.

I do this when mechanicing too, it avoids the problem of trying to get a new glove on a wet sweaty hand, and oftentimes small holes and tears only go through the outer layer, if you can notice in time to change outer glove then it keeps the job rolling

Hi from Denmark👋. Thank you for these great videos💪. A request from me regarding what to show could be how to build a hatch with marine plywood and fiberglass. Just like those on your new boat but with plywood and fiberglass. I would guess it's a bit more tricky due to the sealing of the plywood. Keep up the great work👍

Great video series, thanks. I'm rebuilding the keel stem inside the hull of my boat and replacing the winch tow hook on the bow. Should I drill oversized holes through the timber keel stem and fill with glass before drilling the correct sized holes (8mm or 5/16") for the tow bolt?
@FishBumpTV 6 ай бұрын
Thanks, glad you are enjoying the videos! It is something we do on our boats. Just remember, it only has to be slightly oversized. Then use a very small brush to work some resin into the exposed wood. Be sure to let the resin fully cure before adding a good marine sealant and reinstalling the fastener.

Another awesome, informative and helpful video Captain Joe! I really appreciate the time you take explaining things and also answering questions and comments. You're a stand up dude who's is quite the professional. I've been trying to get through your other videos when I can and have been learning a ton. Maybe you've covered it somewhere else but I'm curious about your take on mounting accessories to the boat. For example, I need to install a bilge pump and float switch. Any advice on that or perhaps you might want to shoot a video covering ways to do it right?? I don't really want to screw it into the bottom of the bilge for fear of creating a point of water intrusion. But if I did is there a safe way to do it so water won't leak past the screw holes? I've thought about bedding the screws or even glassing a mounting board to then mount the bilge pump and float switch to??? I've also wondered if there was just a simple way to use some kind of adhesive to hold it in place in a typical dirty bilge? Sorry for the long comment. Thanks again for being so helpful. Looking forward to watching part two and all the rest of your content.
@FishBumpTV 6 ай бұрын
Thanks so much, I appreciate you taking the time to watch! You are on the right track with your thinking. Look for multiple solutions, then pick the best one for you application. I mounted 2 1500 gal per hr bilge pumps with stainless screws to a piece of 1/2 inch thick polymer in our 29. It sits nicely in the center of the bilge, no grinding or glassing, and is relatively easy to remove or work around if needed. There should be some footage of that in our boatbuilding series in the rigging and hardware phase. Of course every boat is different, but keeping it simple is oftentimes the best way to go. Hope this helps, and best of luck with your project!

Matt glass is held together with a soluble binder (glue), and Polyester resin has Mono Syrene in it, a solvent that dissolves the binder so it wets out the Matt Fiberglass. Epoxy doesn't have any Mono Styrene in it so it cant dissolve the binder in the Matt Gass and is therefore not compatible. Epoxy uses woven cloth that needs no binder, the weave holds it together.

But as you have stated , your videos are longer--because there is so much more information. I tend to demonstrate the same problem in trying to teach the skills necessary.

Another great instructional video. Do you have any tips when the rigging tube can’t protrude the stringer or bulkhead? The way I’ve done it is coat the wood with un thickened epoxy or poly bed the pvc in with cabosil thickened epoxy or poly and sand flush. Paint etc. Would be worthwhile to use a small round over bit inside the pvc to eliminate the sharp edge. Not sure if there is anything else to do in that scenario. Thanks
@FishBumpTV 5 ай бұрын
We hardly ever take them to flush with the surface, I have gone down to a 1/2 inch or so. You could possibly really radius the inside edges of the pipe, then sand the inside and let the glass roll over into the pvc. I might try that on our demo piece we did in our videos. What you did should be fine though. Thanks for watching!

I love your videos very thorough and helpful. I am wondering how strong the fiber glass is with the plywood. For instance my kids and i would like to build a john boat to fish with and i am struggling on how thick the marine grade plywood i would have to use. The reason is i am trying to make it as light as possible thinking 16' or 14' long. 1/4" 7/16" 1/2" what do you think?
@FishBumpTV 5 ай бұрын
Thanks! The kind of plywood you use will be a factor as far a strength goes. Good quality marine plywood is pretty tough stuff, add some fiberglass and it's going to be stronger for sure. If the boat is on the smaller side, and only used in very calm water with low horsepower motors you could do 1/4 sides 1/2 bottom. With some decent framing installed as well. Bigger skiff and a little bigger motor 3/8 to 1/2 sides 5/8 or 3/4 bottom with some frames of course. We have always built skiffs a little heavier duty, so you can factor that in to your needs. I been thinking about building a 14 to 15 foot skiff out of either plywood or Coosa board for the channel. It might be next winter before we can do it though. Hope the suggestions help, and we appreciate you watching!
