Oops again - faired thru glass to the wood at a high spot
Opps... while fairing with the long board, one of the highest spots was at one of the few footballs.  This section sits right on the rear frame.  I sanded through the glass and just barely hit wood.  No good!   Since it is a high spot, if there is a scrape anywhere near this area, it will likely scrape here.  No point in delaying the repair.  I had a pretty good fairing job going, but building this up, for the sake of protection, will leave a slight bump.  No choice.  Making it invisible would use too much epoxy and time.  You can see at the left edge, barely cutting wood...
