Re: internal has its merrits too

In Response To: internal has its merrits too (Tom)

: The thing I like about the internal strong back is when you get to the
: glassing of the deck and hull, you can place the strongback back inside
: and bungie the two halfs together while epoxy is still green. This ensures
: a near perfect final fit of the deck and hull.

: Can you do that with an external strongback?

: Tom

With an external, the forms are in place when you glass the outside of the hull and the outside of the deck. Are you talking about glassing the inside then replacing the "fish skeleton" and letting it cure? If so, how do you prevent it from sticking to the glass? Tape or something like that? Based on Ross Leidy's work, it looks like the external poses no problem in this regard, while retaining its many advantages.
