Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew of Nervous- Starting Over! installs a G10 platform to serve as a foundation for a new baby stay.0:26 They prepare the installation by sanding one side of the G10 plate to ensure proper adhesion and cleaning the surface with alcohol.1:02 To secure the platform against the underside of the deck, they mix a thickened epoxy compound to a consistency significantly thicker than peanut butter.2:17 They refrigerate the epoxy before application to extend the working time to approximately 10 minutes.0:54 The installation process involves pulling the platform into position using wire ties threaded through pre-drilled holes in the deck, which are then tightened against wooden wedges placed above the deck.1:58 C-clamps inserted through a nearby hatch provide additional clamping pressure on the opposite side of the platform.2:36 The crew uses a custom-made tool to maneuver the platform into the tight space before the epoxy sets.3:02 Proper surface preparation and a controlled clamping sequence ensure the structural integrity of the new rigging base.
