Sabolo questions
Posted: Wed Mar 25, 2015 5:46 pm
I'm going to start a build on the Sabolo 15 so I have been pouring over the plans and reviewing all the forum builds and I have a number of questions.
1. There are several frames in this called temp frames. Are these frames glued into the hull or are they only in there to help form the hull and then pulled out? At least one of them look like they stay in place which would not make them temporary. I also don't see from your diagrams where the bow temp frame is used, there is no reference to it.
2. On page 18 you have a picture of a board with two holes in it that you have put cleats on. What is that board? Since it's flat it couldn't possibly be the hull, especially since it has a big hole in it.
3. I noticed on some of the builds there are large holes drilled out of the frame pieces. Should I be drilling these out?
4. Some of the builds have a foot brace inset. This doesn't look like it is in the plans. Should I put that in?
5. Is the deck just glued on with spacers and if you use spacers how do you get tape behind there?
6. I noticed a number of people glassing the inside of the hull. The plan doesn't seem to call for it. What parts need to have cloth fiberglass applied? Should the cockpit be fiberglassed?
Brace yourself this is just the beginning of the questions.
