Damien upgrades the earth lead on his welding equipment using a 95mm copper cable to prevent melting under high amperage.0:23 He then focuses on structural reinforcement for the vessel's stabilizer wings, welding 6mm flat bar gussets and 20mm bar stock to create internal cross-bracing and baffles.7:48 These internal supports distribute load across the wing skin and provide rigidity for the hinge assembly.8:36 The construction process involves welding the skin to internal ribs by cutting slots through the exterior plate and filling them with weld.11:53 Once assembled, the wings will undergo pressure testing at 10 psi using soapy water to detect leaks.11:57 The design incorporates advice from a commercial fisherman at Lakes Entrance, Australia, who has three decades of experience with stabilizer wing evolution.13:24 The current stainless steel hinges are temporary; the crew plans to replace them with robust, mild steel piano-style hinges during a future haul-out.15:32
