: Looking for some insite, I am in the glassing stage of my Great Auk
: Double. I am having a heck of a time sanding the inside curves
: of the hull. What is the best way to smooth in there? I have
: been hand sanding the curve since the ROS will not conform to
: it. Quarter the way done, and a loooooooong way to go. Thanks
: for any suggestions.

Using 40 grit or so? Try one of thoseflexible rubber discs that go on a drill? How about a shaped scraper?

I'm not able to do mine yet, but I'll be real interested what the party of Know adds to this one. Not looking forward to it.
