By next Wednesday's session the transom cured rock solid. Our goal tonight was to clean up her top edge so we can layer some fiberglass tape over it. The stiff biaxial cloth did not stay tacked on over the outside of the transom. The cured edges needed grinding back to where there was a solid bond (core to laminate). Great job for this Dyanbrade cut-off wheel.

| Almost done grinding stray edges off. |
Once all the stray glass was nibbed off, we followed up with the Rotex sander and ETS 125 sander to grind away any remaining un-bonded glass. We also gave all the freshly cured glass a quick wetsand to de-burr it and remove any traces of amine blush. The surface is now ready for TJ and I to cap it with several layers of fiberglass tape. But we'll tackle that next week.
