Finished cutting out the rest of the float form frames and mounted/braced them. I forgot how dusty MDF gets. When we cut the main hull frames, I’m going to remember a dust mask. Will be ready to start planking floats as soon as we get some batten material, but bulkheads are going to come first — they need to be done anyway, and I need the practice with this vacuum pump so anything that gets screwed up will be as small as possible.
In the process we traced out two of the main hull form frames to try and save some MDF by nesting them. Also traced out two float bulkheads to try and infuse when the resin comes in. Still need to finish building the resin catch and some hose connection do-dads.
Time spent : 6.5 hours
