The planks wired to the transom are tight. The bow is tight but the planks are not flush to the bow plate. If I crank down any tighter on the wire they will pop. Can I use a length of rope twisted tight to create a clamp that will snug the ends of the planks to the bow? That may allow me to tighten the wires a little more?
Once the planks are glued on the exterior and I move to the interior i want to stain and varnish it. Do I do this prior to any other interior gluing? phttps://www.facebook.com/kristine.camillone/videos/10153333900636285/
