: Hi Mike,

: Trying to stay out of this, at least for awile :)

: I agree, cabinet scrapers work better on a hull, to me at least, since you
: can shape it to match the surface ie: rounded like the hull.

: I know Rob's method works for Rob, not sure it's going to work for the
: average guy awfully well though, it's really easy to make a whole bunch of
: flat spots on a rounded surface like a kayak hull with a ROS. For a truely
: fair surface nothing beats a longboard. The problem is you don't see
: results quickly and that bothers begining builders, it's a fairly slow
: process that happens to have a much better result for nearly everyone if
: they take the time to do it correctly.

: If you want to be in a hurry, don't expect perfect results.

: Bill H.

Bill, how do you know when you're done using a long board?
