Hiya everybody. Here we are again after more than one month of stop due to several trips abroad by both Cinzia and me. Today we spent 4 hours in the shop to do the fairing of the bottom stringers of the amas. There's a significant amount of wood to remove in order to allow the bottom panel to lay flat on the stringers, particularly at both ends of the hulls. We used the power plane, the various Surforms and the rasp. This work is not trivial and need attention as well as elbow grease. We checked the fairness using the hand saw as shown in the pictures below.
Here is a good spot
while this part needs some fairing
One has to be careful in order to remove the right amount of wood from the right place. In any case, the filling properties of thickened resin will take care of mistakes.
Total work time to date: 130 hours
