Six hours in the shop today. We completed the two inboard ama panels in a significantly shorter time with respect to the first two (outboard) ones: experience pays! This time we cut a few corners: we did not do a dry run first, but instead we first glued and screwed down the longitudinal stringers. Then we cut to size the stiffeners and finally glued them down. We prepared about 750 grams of epoxy resin and thickened it as usual with microfibers. Here are some photos.
Anything may come of help when drilling holes on 5+ meter long stringers (that's my bike btw)
Here's Cinzia spreading the epoxy glue with a brush
and here's how the thickened resin looks like
Here's Cinzia again while we were measuring and cutting to size the stiffeners.
And here we go: everything done!
Total work time to date: 73 hours
