MDF dust

Well, I finally got around to working on something today. During my lunch break I found some time to get over to our woodshop to finish cutting all support frames for my moulds (Thanks to Scott Murphy for all his help, and Avalon Acoustics for the shop time). I'm using a mould building technique I adapted from Bill Beaver, Its a braced and framed MDF mould with slotted L brackets on the outside to hold all the stanchions in place, and a T bracket strongback to hold them down the middle), I hope to get those glued up tomorrow, and who knows, maybe have pics. As far as hull construction goes, I'm making a ply skinned male mould that I can vac press to. I also have a foredeck mould and a deck mould in the works. Can't wait to get back to it, See you tomorrow...... (I might have some foil pics as well, I'm thinking of just using some standard foils from Aardvark Technologies, Mike is suppose to send some pics of the new foils he's building, if he does I'll post em)
