Re: [harryproa] Re: flat table laying up

Both sides of the flat sides are glassed on the flat table, and the out side side of the bige is glassed flat on th etable..
The inside of the bilge is glassed after bent around up into the mould frames. Then the shape sould be set plus decks maybe hold it together too. Buut the ends are brought in and a cut made but not there yet so tell how it goes.

-Much of the sheet can be glassed both sides. It is only round the
bilges there is much curvature
