Building a 1950's Glen-L Squirt runabout, using vacuum bagging techniques to applying mahogany veneer in strips that simulates the wood-planking construction of iconic Cris-Craft boats of the day. Full detail on the vacuum bag process, including the pump, peel-ply, breather mat and butyl sealing tape. Also includes discussion on the West System epoxy used, tinting methods, and tips and tricks to lead to a clean finished result.
