It is a boat. There are very few things that you can do to it that cannot be undone. If you drill a hole in the wrong place, plug it and drill one in the right place. If there is not enough wood, add some. If there is too much wood, plane some off. Remember, it only has to be pretty when you are done. If you are working on someone elses boat, send them away while you make the cuts or drill the holes. If you can get them to stay away until the job is done, all the better. michael cramer_at_coe.uga.edu wrote: > > Measure twice. Measure again.
