What this video covers

Sven Yrvind fabricates custom handholds for his boat using rope, wood, and epoxy.▶ 1:41 He wraps a length of rope around a wooden core to create the desired grip shape and size.▶ 1:41 After applying epoxy to the rope and allowing it to cure, he uses an oscillating tool to cut the assembly into individual, lightweight, and rigid handles.▶ 0:36 These handles are mounted in multiple locations throughout the interior to provide secure points for moving about the cabin.▶ 1:15 The construction method allows for custom sizing and placement while maintaining high structural strength with minimal added weight.▶ 2:01
