Project Log: Sunday, January 8, 2012
I didn't feel like getting going on anything
significant. My next major direction was likely to be
the work leading up to the engine installation, but I
wasn't ready to start that till I'd obtained the
materials needed for the work, and anyway, the first
step would be some additional grinder work in the engine
room that I just didn't feel like doing now. So I
took care of a few small and random details instead.
First, I removed all the clamps and braces securing the
new paneling in the pilothouse. |
 |
I removed all the temporary screws I'd used to hold the
overhead cleats in place during their installation. |
 |
Portions of the interior were ready for trim whenever
the spirit moved me, so I made a series of measurements
and listed the basic trim I'd need to mill up and
prepare. |
 |
The head space was an area I'd not thought much about,
as it was self-defined and my plans for the space were
straightforward. Since it was unlikely that I'd
turn my efforts towards the head anytime soon, I decided
to turn it into an quasi storage room; I'd already been
using the space for some of the miscellany I was keeping
on board. I'd been using the forward cabin for
tool storage, but I planned to soon begin additional
work up there, so felt it was best to clear out the
clutter sooner than later.
To that end, I installed some temporary shelves in the
head using basic metal shelf brackets, all of which I'd
remove later. |
