Epoxy is a good gap filler, but when the gap gets chasm size, as you show, better to shim out the frame with wood . Use a chisel for clean up, not a finger sander. The sander is too localized, and likely to cause issues with over sanding. It is better to clean joints ASAP after glue up. Makes it easier and cleaner. An edged tool will always do a cleaner job

[@Polymerman]

Thanks for watching and you comment. I fully agree. Some of my gaps are way too big, and shimming is a good idea. Hopefully my gaps improve as I gain experience.

Loving this series but had to fast forward the last ten minutes after I developed a nervous tick listening to that repetitive background music :) Fantastic project and already looks great :)

[@Polymerman]

Thank you. Question- Should I have more time with no music, or just different music? I hate my own voice, so I tend to add music.

[@DamianPenney]

Just the sounds of the tools would be great, take a look at Kobeomusk Furniture's videos, those are really nicely done, small amount of background music but mostly just tool sounds and I'm sure folks would like more voice over, everyone hates the sound of their own voice :) Again great job on the build, building the boat is daunting enough so I can only imagine what building and videoing is like :)

[@Polymerman]

Those are really good woodworking videos. I will try a few changes.

For God’s sake use metric so much easier! Great work though

[@Polymerman]

Great comment. I tell myself this a lot, and yet my American stubbornness endures.

[@DamianPenney]

​@@PolymermanImperial and CNC is a tough match, do the plans specify both?

[@lamontcranston8181]

Fractional measurements are just as easy.

[@Polymerman]

@@DamianPenney I think they are metric, and I stupidly convert to English.

[@Polymerman]

@@DamianPenney the plans are in metric. Not sure why I use imperial.
