Boxed In
by Jake on Feb.27, 2006, under Composite Works
I brought the new trailer boxes home this afternoon. Brian, welder extraordinaire, did a great job tig welding the aluminum boxes. I spent a bit getting things sorted out so I can deliver the extra boxes to North Carolina soon (it’s a long story). I remounted the original matching stainless box to the trailer and will stack the one aluminum box on these two for delivery. That leaves us with one of the aluminum boxes that I just built.
I did get some work done on the boat…nothing groundbreaking – just more sanding. I also ground out the daggerboard well cracks on the starboard hull. They weren’t anywhere as deep or long as on the port hull. I thought it might be warm enough to get some filler applied but it was a little too cold. More warm weather is on the way!

Jake,
You do wonderful work. The box looks terrific. I’ll go back to the gym and keep getting skinny.
