Peter refits the cabin entrance of the pocket catamaran Squib by fabricating new wooden side panels to replace the aging structure.0:47 He cuts two-meter-long softwood boards to match the seven-degree angle of the deckhouse, accounting for non-parallel cabin walls that vary in width by four centimeters from floor to ceiling.1:21 After dry-fitting the panels, he removes them to apply epoxy and fiberglass reinforcement off-site.5:42 He uses a custom-cut plastic scraper to form a structural fillet, or *Hohlkehle*, between the panels and the fiberglass, allowing him to combine the fillet and lamination steps to save time during the final warm days of the season.16:58 He reinforces the soft wood with generous amounts of epoxy resin to ensure proper saturation and adhesion of the glass matting.13:18 The process involves repeated sanding, filling, and shaping to achieve a smooth finish before final installation. Precise measurement and the use of right-angle jigs prove essential for correcting the irregular geometry of the existing cabin structure.7:12
