'mini cup' sailing dinghy
I dont think I have ever before seen the words "sailing " and "desert" used in the same sentence. Have fun and I hope your boat (whatever you build" is a lot of fun.

Anything i need except for really basic stuff needs to be trucked in from a long way away. I'll probably go with screws ;-) Shaun wrote in message ps.com... BTW, instead of screws, you might want to use the silicon bronze ring shank nails (A box with sufficient 3/4" nails is fairly cheap) from Jamestown Distributors to fasten the stringers to the bottom. Of course, the stringers should be glued with epoxy as well. When you fasten the sides, you will use screws (and epoxy) because they will pull the sides toward the stringers. I should have mentioned Jamestown Distributors as a source for epoxy and glass. |
