The crew of a custom-built vessel installs 5mm cast acrylic windows onto a handcrafted carbon fiber hardtop.▶ 0:46 To shape the acrylic, they use a jigsaw for straight cuts and a heat gun to soften the material for complex curves.▶ 12:59 Because the plastic deforms differently than cardboard templates, they use a test piece to determine the necessary dimensions before cutting the final panels.▶ 12:10 To secure the windows, they drill holes through the acrylic and into the hardtop legs, then use a Dremel to clear foam from the carbon fiber structure.▶ 16:40 They backfill these cavities with epoxy to create a solid mounting point for temporary screws.▶ 16:47 This method allows for easy removal of the windows for future painting without damaging the hardtop.▶ 17:32 While the current installation is not watertight, the crew prioritizes ease of disassembly over a permanent seal.▶ 17:20 The project is powered by a Bluetti Elite 100 V2 portable power station, which runs the jigsaw and heat gun during the installation process.▶ 5:32
