Day 7 - Beveling begins


After a day off, I completed gluing down the remaining top deck reinforcement pieces. Put more sawdust in that on the last time and it was much goopier (technical term) than before. Starting to get a feel for the differences in viscosity of the resin.

After that fun and excitment, I used the belt sander to take off some of the overhanging wood from the reinforcement. I was being very careful not to remove too much wood.


After the belt sander, I used the block plane to bevel the edge of the top deck where it will meet the side deck. I'm beveling down through 2 of the 3 layers of plywood. I only worked on one of the top pieces, as I really need to wait for the other glued pieces to set up.
