Windshield parts.
Marking bevel.
Windshield assembled.
Make 100 percent sure that there is no glue fillet
between the strake and the bottom. This would
make the strakes useless, as we need the edge to
“bite” as we turn.
Windshield
Sand the three parts to the windshield. These are the
front windshield, and two side supports.
Hold one of the side supports up to the windshield, and
mark the bevels needed.
The windshield must be beveled top and bottom so
that it sits flat on the deck, and so that the top is
smooth.
Use your plane to rough the bevel, and your sanding
block with 80 to finish.
Lay the windshield and one side on the bench, and
check to see that the bevel is correct.
When satisfied, glue the sides to the windshield with
medium CA.
Sand with 150 and seal with epoxy resin.
When dry, sand with 150, and recoat with resin.
When that is dry, use 30 minute epoxy to attach the
assembly to the deck.
Use tape to hold it in place while the glue cures.
