Bottom ready for assembly. Test fit first.

Note tape.
Engine rails before laminating (above), and after.
Let’s get started
Bottom
The first thing to be done is to join the
bottom halves.
Use 30 minute epoxy for this.
Sand off the tiny bumps where the edges
meet. Test fit the bottoms, as well as the
front extensions.
Tape the two bottom sheets tightly
together on one side.
On the other side, use a continuous strip
of tape on the seam. This will be a tape
hinge. Carefully remove the tape you put
on the other side.
Mix up some 30 minute epoxy and coat
both edges while you open up the tape
hinge. Make sure both edges are coated
well.
Close the hinge, wipe off excess glue and
glue the front extensions in place.
Work quickly.
Tightly tape everything and set aside
overnight.
If you are concerned about the sides not
meeting correctly, put waxed paper under
and over the bottom, and stack weights
along all seams to keep it flat.
Laminates
Laminate the 4 engine rails into two ¼ inch
rails.
All engine rail parts are identical.
