varios jobs

I started this morning to de-mold the after beam mount that I laminated yesterday to bridge the cap. I directly cleaned the putty edges so that it was ready to receive the under laminated. The next job was to laminated the other side so that that cap is now also filled. After the lunch we did the last side of the frond beam bulkhead, this is a big job because of the many layers that had to put on. We had some time left so we did the underside of the of the after beam mount what I cleaned this morning.

making molds for the after beam mounts

I did spend three quarter of the day to make the four molds that bridge the cap from the beam mounts to the cockpit floor and with preparing for some laminating. I laminated only one side because it was already the end of the day when I started with laminating. Tomorrow I do the other side and the last front beam bulkhead.

some more UD on the aft beam mounts

We getting some guest for dinner so I stopped early this time. I only put some more carbon on the after beam mounts, the next step is then to make a mold to put some UD from the mounts to the cockpit floor.

first UD on the after beam mounts

I started this morning with the necessary layers of UD and and biaxial on the after beam mounts and in the afternoon I did one side of the of the after side of the frond beam bulkhead. This time only one side because it was more than enough for today.

Not so much progress

Today we are going south region of our club CTC to get some dinner and meet some friends so I did little. I only put some putty around the beam mounts, not to be seen in the pictures.

Fitting the after beam mounts

Rob and I fitted the after beam mounts and this went very well. When Rob did cut the foam to put around the beam mounts I was cutting the carbon pieces . Then Fetske did came with the Tea, after that Rob and Fetske did go away so I could do the epoxy putty and some temporary carbon pieces to make it strong enough to get the brace away tomorrow. The tent was already in place when I took the pictures, this is to get it warm enough.

cutting the edges of the beam mounts

I first did cut the chainplates for Rob his boat and I then started to cut the edges of the beam mounts.
After that I grinded the rest and filled the remaining small holes.
The after beam mounts also had to get some extra UD so I did that to. The after side of the front beam bulkhead did get some putty on the beam mount edges.
