Default polyurethane adhesive

Daniela,
You will find doing the job correctly once is much better than doing twice
or more. Please remember the forces that will be involved, as the windlass
must be through bolted to a substantial beam under the deck. The base will
have to be solid to withstand the compression loads, flat on top and shaped
to the crown of the deck underneath. If large pieces of stock are used, they
could split over time. The best way to do this is to first make a shape
template to capture the crown, then laminate properly sized planks of 1 to 2
inches in thickness preprofiled for the deck crown with epoxy and clamped to
cure. When cured, finish as you wish. If the deck is teak, cut a rebate at
the deck line and seal with polysulfide sealant. Please remember to
alternate the grain, plank to plank, when assembling the lamination.

Would you guys agree on the use of one-part polyurethane adhesive instead
of two-part epoxy with filler for gluing several (4) pieces of 1" teak
wood planks in order to make a properly shaped base between the windlass
and the deck?

Thank you in advance
Daniel
