Final Steps Of Construction

We've finally come to the last bits of construction on our V-Bottom Skiff. This week we're out to glue up and fasten down our caps. This may seem like an easy step but it's actually pretty complicated and important that we get it right or we'll have spaces showing clear as day on top of our caps. The secret it to fasten it down from one end to the other and also prop the ends up when we drill them so there's a little space between them when we remove the prop causing the screws to pull the caps tightly against one another at the scarfs.
