Tim's SN build

[BruceSki]

the only way he will need some is if he winds up getting a stock RN pole.

he seems pretty set on that goose pole though

 

[BruceSki]

okay so we got some more done today. primed the ski.....this will help us see where the high and low spots are to do MORE sanding and filler work.(when will it end)
the primer is not really on there to ready it for paint..its just to show us where to even everything out more.

tim laid a layer of biax under the nose and around the rear bond line to strengthen that up some more.

we foamed out the rest of the hood and shaped the foam. after sanding the hood rough it will be ready for some glass.

hopefully tomorow we should have the hood glassed. we have to wait on the hoodliner for more fiberglass supplies... we ran out of biax. apparently 3 yards wasnt enough for this project.
