Okay I understand now. That makes sense, especially protecting the goodies.
In my case I rarely find myself sitting on the trunk or the supporting...

Hey thanks , Great ideas. I had thought about running the tape around the inside if I glue but the pull tab idea is good.

Waffling on methodology....

[Toxophilite]

That's probably sensible. I do have some titebond 3. I also have siki 291i though that might be anathema.

Perhaps I used the wrong term. Both my daggerboard and rowing plug have caps. This is a wooden 'extender' that 'caps' the unfinished park of the trunk...

More progress and a fair amount of toil. I don't have a lot of tolerance for long term projects which is why I don't build guitars( despite training)...
