I was wondering about this as well, I know epoxy yellows horribly in sunlight. Would a clear coat keep it fom yellowing?
I guess ill be the first to try, like stated in a old post most guns usually see the sun a few hours 1 or twice a week tops, I have some PPG clear im going to spray over the top of west 105 then sand and buff well see how it comes out
Work has slowed down, flooded with work, shitty weather and persistent cold/fever. Mortised the ulusub handle and line anchor
Cool. I feared it might be a winter only activity.
Are summer runs too?
Nothing worth spending time trying.
It's a little late in the year to really do any shrimping, the lights are to spot them. From shore the best thing to use is a dip net with a 31 series battery to power your light, they push through on outgoing tide.
Has any one used a epoxy to seal the wood then top coat with a sprayed on automotive clear?
:cherna2:

Lmk if you guys need another diver
I think you guys are over thinking this a bit too much... 
you see a boat, get out of the way, if its too close take a dive.
works of art
Got some work done since fishing has been slow, pinned mech in place, routed line release, shaped muzzle and radius ed the corners. Switched plans on handle and going with behslayers composite handle. This will end up being a true 110cm band stretch gun and OAL will be 55"
Do you have a number or address? Google returned several potential matches. I actually got lucky and all of my cushions were in storage from day 1. Only the console seat bottom and backrest were on the boat and they were destroyed, but I'm adding a leaning post anyway so they were useless to me. Thank you for the help so far I've been dealing with Gary's upholstery(very nice friendly people) in Tampa but the phone tag and waiting for samples to go back and forth is getting frustrating.

I work 2 blocks away if you need me to swing by.
I am making a leaning post/seat for my boat and would also like to add coaming bolsters for when I H&L. Does anyone know any good marine upholstery shops in south florida that could either sell me fabric that matches my current cushions or even make them for me if the price was right? Boat is a 1996 Proline if that makes a difference.
I buy my fabric from Elite upholstery in Miami, you would have to take a sample to match it up, but more then likely you wont find a perfect match as the sun has faded yours
Bit south, marathon nice day, seas flat, viz horrible from the dock to the stream. No fish in sight except for 1 black and a mac
very nice build! why cumaru? i heard its a dense wood and will damage tools faster
dont know if its true
does it epoxies good with teak?
keep us posted!!
Bonded well with the teak, it does take its toll on tools and splinters. I used it to make the gun more rigid and offset the Buoyancy~`of the teak.
