Boat post!

We spent Thursday finishing gluing up the side panels so that on Super Bowl sunday we can flip the boat back over and go on to the next step. A couple things I learned (that I already knew):

• It's hard to control the epoxy in the pastry bag
• It's easier to control the epoxy in the pastry bag when you make it thick enough
• It's funnier when you're not the one holding the bag (sorry Jim)
• Epoxy gets pretty hot when it's curing.

Related to that last point, the second bag of epoxy that I mixed was a nice thickness and it went a long way. It started warming up about halfway through and by the time I'd finished the bag it was hot to the touch. I had read that this would happen but it's definitely different to feel it in your hands. Just ask Dane how many times I told him my hands were melting.
