What this video covers

Edgar and Sâmia continue the interior fit-out of their boat’s pilot house, focusing on applying Formica laminate to structural beams and window surrounds.0:06 To minimize material waste, they apply contact adhesive to entire sheets before trimming the laminate to size with a router, rather than pre-cutting pieces.10:40 They compare two brands of contact adhesive, noting that the product currently in use produces significantly fewer fumes in the enclosed cabin than the previous KisaFix brand, though they emphasize the importance of proper ventilation and allowing the glue to lose its sheen before bonding.7:43 Edgar reinforces a heavy structural beam with additional epoxy lamination to prevent potential torsion, particularly because the beam will eventually support deck hardware like winches.16:08 The crew completes the laminate finish on the bathroom bulkhead, the rear cabinet, and the pilot house window frames.19:55 They plan to address the staircase and remaining trim in subsequent stages of the build.20:28
