Gluing Internal Aka Blocking



This is a small intermediate task today.  The blocks are placed in before the other side so that glue will not be scraped off.  If I attempt push these between the two sides, the buttered epoxy would all be pushed to the bottom or scraped at the top and there would not be a good bond.  

Tomorrow the jig blocks on the left will have to be temporarily removed so the side board can be swung in horizontally rather than pushed down vertically between the jig and internal block. Again to avoid scraping glue off.

These blocks will later be drilled to accept the bolts that anchor the beams to the main hull.


Task time: 1 hour
Total project time: 158 hours
