Cosa tratta questo video

Replacing the headliner aboard the 40-foot sailboat Athena involves installing 5mm plywood panels onto 12mm or 24mm plywood spacers secured to the deck.1:18 To manage curved sections and structural obstructions, templates are created from scrap material using hot glue, then transferred to plywood and cut with a track saw and jigsaw.3:41 Vinyl is applied to the panels using thickened epoxy and adhesive. A structural pole—the "Josh hole"—is concealed by fabricating two plywood halves that clamp around the post, finished with vinyl and magnetic latches.8:42 Wiring in the aft cabin is hidden behind a custom-built cover featuring a thickened epoxy fillet.9:37 A new 12-inch dual-bevel cordless Bosch miter saw is used to cut teak trim for the kitchen island, replacing a faulty shop saw.13:37 The project concludes with the installation of all headliner panels in the aft and forward cabins.12:31 Using five-minute epoxy for trim installation proved ineffective due to rapid curing times, necessitating a switch to standard thickened epoxy.17:07
