Project Log: Saturday, April 21, 2012
I finally found time late Friday to apply another coat
of satin varnish to the dash and console in the
pilothouse, a job I'd intended for last weekend but
never got around to. The end result was
satisfactory, and this meant that I could move on with
the satin varnish on the side bulkheads and windows
next, as well as continue work on the various
console-based installations at my whim. |
 |
Continuing with the trim work in the main cabin, I began
by paring away the bungs I installed last time.
Then, I cut and fit the final piece of galley countertop
fiddle on the refrigerator access hatch. Since it
seemed natural--despite the nearby ring pull--that we'd
end up lifting this hatch by the trim, I decided to mill
a hand hold in the fiddle to make lifting easier.
I installed the trim with glue and two brads to hold it
while the glue cured, since driving screws into the 1/2"
plywood would be insufficient, and I didn't want to add
additional blocking that could get in the way of the
refer itself or the front cover panel that I'd be
building later. |
 |
Next, I cut and fit trim around the back edge of the
stove cutout, incorporating the wooden blocking I'd used
during the stove's installation some time ago. |
 |
Wrapping up a short morning's work, I cut and installed
several pieces of quarter round trim around the galley
countertop and cabin trunk on the starboard side. |
