Keel Bottom and Side Butt Splices



Today, I epoxied the keel bottom pieces and the keel side pieces together with their respective butt splices. Seems pretty easy to do, but the pieces really slid around a lot after applying the epoxy twice on both pieces. I used 7/8" brads to hold everything in place and as many heavy things as I could find to keep the bottom butt splice as tight as possible.
Tomorrow, I will try to start assembling the keel sides and bottom along with the interior keel pieces.
