Fairing example
The deck shown, when installed, was screwed down at the perimeters, and silly me,
ALSO in the centre (onto a cleated station)
What happened was inevitable. The deck distorted slightly. You cant see it with the naked eye, but its there.
To rectify this, 6mm ply strips have been bonded in key places, and a mixture of epoxy/woodflour and fairing mix
have been used to fair the contours back to a rough shape - Half complete now.
Final sanding and fairing is all that is required to complete.
