Well, I have the hatch ready to sand and 'glass \:D/ I got alot done this weekend, on the balance of the roof. I employed Mike's suggestion for clamping, well, a variation! :wink: I am gluing panels of strips to the roof using this setup,gorilla glue, and hot glue,,Image,,to get the job done. I got about 6 feet of roof done Saturday. Took a nap today! :sleeping: I have updated the journal with thelatest photos.
Thanx for the support!

I can see, that is going to be very very pretty when it's done. And it'll certainly be unlike any teardrop I've ever seen before. Do you find the gorilla glue oozes out a lot and makes a mess out of things? I've found that using outdoor wood glue is a lot less messy.

But cedar stripping is still a lot of work. I'm happy I am painting my big benroy. I put some more CPES on it tonight. I also hung the hatch today, but I don't have any pictures.

The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...
