Ed 151 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Just seen on facepage that Taeping is heading overseas, needed a bit of a nose job to fit in the container though. Sad to see her go, but hopefully will continue to actively race Quote Link to post Share on other sites

paxfish 5 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I'm curious. What would be the "proper" way to re-attach those bows? You would have limited interior access I presume.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fasteddy 0 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 glass plates onto underside of horizontal beams and flanges around the perimeter of the cut sections and then after lineing it up and gluei then clampi the flanges together.

Ed 151 Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 In reality you would have to open up a couple of access Windows to do the structural join, then close then up afterwards Quote Link to post Share on other sites
