I chose to start with thin strips from the start. This means that I can't just keep rough sanding. So now that all saw marks and other damage has been sanded off it is time to fill remaining low spots and move to 120 grit for a finer sand.
Anything low or damaged is filled with timbermate wood filler. Most of this will be sanded off again leaving a fair surface.
Along the port side where the first strips were laid and the coves were not deep enough there are some gaps in the surface that mean long stripes of filler.120 grit sandpaper glued to the fairing board, filler dried, ready to go. At this time I purchased a 3m full face air filter so I dont breathe this shit.
Commencement of sanding the filler with the fairing board makes a real mess initially.
Fiberglass and epoxy for the hull arrived today. Woot. Need to get the stern and bow pieces fitted next.
