Top Deck
Sand the mating edges of the two top deck
sheets. Try to keep the edge square.
Using masking tape, tape the decks together as
shown. Pull the tape tight so that the decks fit
well.
Run one long piece of masking tape the full
length of the seam, right on top of the other
tape.
Flip this assembly over.
Mix up some 30 minute epoxy.
Flip the joined sheets over and “hinge” them
open.
Apply 30 minute epoxy in the joint.
Place the assembly flat on the bench, and wipe
any excess glue off of the seam.
Put a few pieces of tape across the seam, to
hold it tightly together. Let sit for at least 2-3
hours (overnight is better).
When cured, remove all masking tape and sand
both sides of the seam smooth.
Determine which side looks better and mark the
other side as “bottom”.
