Cosa tratta questo video
Garrett uses TotalBoat Thixo 2.0 wood-thickened epoxy to create structural fillets while building a wooden dinghy.0:21 The pre-thickened, tube-based epoxy allows for rapid, clean application compared to the traditional method of mixing epoxy with wood flour and dispensing it from a Ziploc bag.0:55 While the product offers significant convenience and smooth consistency, it is more expensive than bulk-mixed epoxy, making it better suited for smaller projects or specific tasks rather than an entire hull build.10:58 Garrett installs an Alder breast hook at the bow, beveling the wood to match the planking angle to maintain the option for a bright-finished interior.4:46 After completing the internal fillets on the frames and transom, the crew flips the hull to begin spot-gluing the external seams.11:54 This preparation precedes the removal of temporary stitches, final seam sealing, and the application of fiberglass.15:26 Using an electric caulking gun with pre-thickened epoxy tubes significantly reduces hand fatigue during repetitive filleting tasks.11:17
