: I used an old woodturner's trick to dry out the saturated cedar.
: After cutting back the glass, I soaked the wood with rubbing
: alcohol two or three times. Then I left the boat out in the sun
: for the afternoon.

Yes, GREAT info, thanks! But why do wood turners need to dry out soaked cedar????????
