Benchmark 29 Update!

Today we finally started moving forward with gluing more material onto the hull!

First, we started by tacking every bottom panel into place from the underside of the bulkheads. Even though the bottom panels are already glued down, we like to keep everything tacked in place until the fiberglass is laid up to ensure everything stays tight and secure.

Once everything was tacked in place, it was finally time to remove all the washers and screws from the bottom and start making some progress toward getting the hull ready for glass.

Starting at the bow, we mocked up a piece of 1” Divinycell before ripping down two 1” x 1” strips to fill the void where the port and starboard bottom panels meet at the keel. After getting everything fitted and glued into place, we used shrink-wrap string to help hold the shape while the epoxy cures.

Moving to the transom, we followed a similar process, ripping down a 1” x 1” strip of Coosa to fill the remaining void. Once everything was fitted, we glued and screwed it into position and will let it cure overnight.

Tomorrow, we’ll remove the remaining screws and begin rounding off the transom, shaping the keel, and cleaning up the bottom of the hull in preparation for fiberglass.

We’re getting closer to cutting and laying our first layers of glass on the bottom of the Benchmark 29!!

From a fallen generational oak tree 3 years ago, to a rough blank, to a 2 year dry time, and finally back to the lathe. Twice turning takes patience but the product speaks for itself.

White oak, urban salvaged from my community, 10" wide by 3.5" high and finished with 100% food safe oil. Built to last generations to come. Available on our website now, link in the bio! 🪵⚡

Benchmark 29 Update!

After getting all 14 bottom panels cut, fitted, and temporarily installed, it was time to pull them all back off and get them permanently bonded into place!

We started by removing all 14 sheets from the jig, prepping our bonding surfaces, and mixing up our thickened epoxy. From there, it was a repetitive process of applying epoxy, laying each panel back into position, and screwing it down to ensure a strong, consistent bond to the stringers and transom bracket.

14 panels and 8 hours later, we officially have the entire bottom of the Benchmark 29 glued and screwed into place!

Now we’ll let everything cure overnight before getting back after it tomorrow. Our next step is to toenail the panels into place from the underside of the jig, securing everything before we begin shaping and fairing the bottom.

Once that’s complete, we’ll be one major step closer to laying down our first layers of fiberglass!

Wedge mode. These are one of two critical components for my next pursuit. DIVIDE. Videos coming in the next post, that give a glimpse as to how I make them. Extremely simple and adaptable jig. #design #woodwork #art #

A sign that tells people ‘you’re almost there’ isn’t something you grab off a shelf. It’s built for that spot, that moment, that cafe. DM us to build yours.

Also love that I can bring my kids to work 🥹
