The refit of the pocket catamaran Squib involves fabricating and installing a new cabin door and a rear bulkhead panel located behind the helm seat.0:51 The project utilizes reclaimed pine wood from a previous deckhouse build, reinforced with fiberglass matting and thickened epoxy resin.0:40 After laminating the panels, the process requires multiple rounds of filling, sanding with 80-grit paper, and edge-rounding using a small router to achieve a smooth finish.10:17 The builder marks imperfections with a pencil before applying filler to ensure thorough coverage.16:31 Two 10 mm safety glass windows are installed into the prepared cutouts using Sikaflex adhesive, with surfaces cleaned by acetone and stainless steel wool to ensure proper bonding.19:46 The installation also includes measuring and replacing a temporary wooden support with a custom-fabricated metal pipe.7:58 Final mounting of the door and bulkhead occurs during a mild winter weather window, confirming the fit and alignment of the new components.18:58
