Total Make Over!

Image
 The Auset Fronds is getting a make over. It's like getting  liposuction to remove all of the excess fat that has built up over time. The Auset Fronds will be more like a true boat, than a raft. The boat will have 21 fronds instead of 11, which will make the boat wider than she previously was. I also removed the fangs that's found on the fronds, to eliminate the gaps that separates them when they are laid next to each other. I'm also only using construction strength adhesive this time, to glue the fronds together, and the boat will be built  using fronds only.  Building the boat this way, cuts down on wasting the adhesive, and unnecessary layering. Once I join the bow and stern ends together, I will reinforce the joined ends to strengthen the center of the hull.
