Fairing Board *pic*

Posted by John in Dallas on Apr 25, 2004

That fairing board posted in my ealier message is 22" long. The paper is standard sheet paper, 11" long, cut lengthwise as glued end-to-end with contact cement. It may be longer than necessary for stitch and glue boats, but for strip-built boats I find the length very useful.

To change paper, a heat gun is used to warm up the contact cement, so the paper peels off relatively easy.

The pic below is of a fairing board that uses a sanding belt and has one 'flexible side' (from Wooden Canoe Heritage Association web site).
