S&G: WGW Construction Day 22

Posted By: rb
Date: Saturday, 2 March 2002, at 10:14 p.m.

Today I removed all the clamps from the Breasthook and the Knees of the wherry. Everything seems to have glued well. Now was time to glue the rubrail on to the boat. Previous night I have joined the 4 pieces together to create 2 long rubrails for the wherry. Today when it all dried up I removed the clamps and proceeded to attach the rubrails to the boat in a dry run. I thought that it would bend pretty easily but I needed to use quite a bit of strength to attach the rubrails to the boat. The breasthook area expecially is very tricky to clamp down. I decided to leave the rubrails on the boat overnight - thinking the wood will form better and will be easier to glue the next day.
