Project Log: Wednesday, December 12, 2012
With a short window of time at my disposal, I decided to
do a little work on the trim in the forward cabin.
With a chisel, I removed the excess bungs from the
curved forward trim, then lightly sanded the new corner
and edge trim as needed to prepare for finishing.
Meanwhile, I lightly sanded the veneer panels on the
cabin trunk, as well as the chainlocker bulkhead, to
prepare them for additional varnish at the same time.
I hoped to move the varnish work along over the next
several days or week, as these areas were the final
major interior components requiring finish varnish. |

Late in the day, Jason stopped by with the completed
dinette seat backs, and also to test-fit one of the
wedge-shaped cushions slated for the forward and after
bulkheads in the dinette. With a 10° bevel on the
foam, we had some concerns about how the new cushion
would visually interface with the "regular" seat back
cushions on the longitudinal bulkhead, so we thought a
mockup before upholstering the pieces would be smart,
just in case we needed to make any substantial design
changes.
Fortunately, the wedged cushion--designed for improved
seating comfort versus the vertical bulkhead
itself--looked like it'd work well, without any
particular visual weirdness. Jason took the blanks
back to his shop for completion, probably by the end of
the week. |
