A small project: adding a well placed shelf!
Make a shelf template out of strips cut from a door skin and a glue gun. (The strips are 2 inches wide and can be scored with a utility knife and cleanly snapped at close to the correct length and glued together at the correct boat angles with the glue gun). Cut the shelf out of Plexiglas. Measure and cut a fiddle.
Of course there were a few more steps, cutting a dado in the back of the fiddle to fit over the outer edge of the Plexiglas shelf to provide support. Easily done with a handheld router using a fence held in place with clamps. The alder was left over from another shelving project and the fiddle was cut from the face of a teak shelving unit that had been removed from the main salon to make room for the lounge chairs.
All told 4 hours or so of total work. The spray lacquer really speeds up application and dry times. Of course… the project was done on a boat… so the shelf is not square. That’s were the door skin strips and a glue gun come in handy. A carpenter friend in Oregon made up the strips for me 2 years ago and this project finished off that batch… I will be needing more…
Just another day in the life of a retired live-a-board…
