![]() Oh man!! I thought it was a **moaning** chair not a *wailing* chair! ...I never gat anyting rite! Brian D -- http://www.advantagecomposites.com/tongass -- My 22' Tolman Skiff project ..

"Brian D" writes: Also, beginners tend to spend more time futzing around with getting the right amount of thickener in the epoxy, applying it carefully, trying to get fiberglass to work the way you expected etcetera. You forgot the part where the beginner plops himself down in Chapelle's "wailing chair", stews over the obvious mistake, grinds off two days worth of fiberglass and epoxy, then starts over. Plus mixing too much epoxy, and having it go off in the pot. I bought two one ounce pumps, for my first epoxy boats (five cheap canoes). I mix up 3oz batches, apply that, then mix another. I also use super slow epoxy resin. Where I live (Sacramento) it's often 110F, and slow epoxy can go off in a few minutes under some conditions. -- I don't speak for Intel Michael Kelly (the one in Folsom) "and nobody is fooled except the usual fools." --Jonah Goldberg |

My wife threw out my whole library, when the third kid came along, and the kid got billeted in my office. Now at least I get to build boats "for the children". ;-) Mike. |
