Cosa tratta questo video
Matt and Jessica bond the bridge deck of their 42-foot custom catamaran to the hulls using methacrylate adhesive.0:50 The process requires 17 meters of bonding length, necessitating approximately five kilograms of resin and activator.1:26 To manage the 50-minute working time, the team uses a mechanical mixer and four people to ensure even application and lowering.2:41 They utilize a setup of collapsible sawhorses and borrowed jack stands to support the bridge deck during the dry fit and final placement.5:56 To maintain a consistent three-millimeter bond gap, they insert glass beads into the adhesive.9:13 Once the deck is lowered onto the hulls, they install temporary wooden cleats and screws across the seam to pull the surfaces flush.11:57 This structural connection permanently joins the two hulls, stiffening the vessel's frame.13:40 The successful bond marks a major milestone in the build, transforming the separate components into a single, floatable catamaran structure.13:36
