: How many of the them are fabric to wood though?

: Yea I know, Just not willing to be the first to try it.
: I thought SoF was nuts.
: I thought Lashing was nuts.
: I should have been from Missouri.

Why not build one for yourself and try it.

I use the contact cement on my lap joint on my gunwales all the time, works fine for me.

Nice thing is the contact cement can be softened with heat, household iron, so wrinkles can be ironed out and once the iron is removed it sets right back up again.
