Anyone interested in 83 Pace Arrow Tear down and Rebuild?

I then clamped a number of strips together temporarily.







Then a small pilot hole was drilled on both ends for a screw.

Now for the nitty gritty on putting this puppy together.

As you can see, I needed a bunch of thin strips for the sink bottom.

What to do?

First off, I cut a number of strips a little longer than what I actually needed, and marked the strip on both ends to the length I wanted.







Next was to mark the line from corner to corner where I needed to cut.

Yes, it's a sink. This will "tell the water where to go". Lol.

The drain will be in the corner, and the wood strips are all pointing in that direction.

I haven't glued the bottom together yet, and it is not glued to the sides yet either, but, hopefully, that will come shortly.

Time to put things into perspective. We need to join a couple of things together, in order to make it, make sense.

This is my first mock up, and I am getting close to assembly. Yay!

Then, lets cut a bunch of tapered strips of thin wood on top of the plywood, like this.







Well, that's a little strange.

Sorry for the delay. I thought I was going to be able to get this posted last night, but, I didn't get far enough.

First off, let's take a piece of plywood and put a bunch of pencil lines on it, like this.

Fake grass would not weigh much. I could really load up an Easter basket, couldn't I? Lol.

Thanks.
