Peg's Custom Teardrop Construction Continues, Bulkheads and Cabinets!! |
| I framed the rear galley bulkhead in pine. I glued the framing to a piece of Cherry that was left from the interior skins. Later, I'll add foam insulation and another skin. |
 |
 |
Here, I have the second skin in place. The panel will weigh a lot less than the same size piece of solid ply, with the benefit of being insulated. |
| Since the lower strip of wood which covers the frame will get wet, I covered it with a couple of coats of epoxy. This will keep the wood from being damaged by moisture. |

A shot of the lower galley bulkhead and the galley upper cabinet frame. |
| Here is
one of the cabin cabinet frames. There will be two bins, on left, and a
flip-down door for access to the galley from inside the cabin. Great
for midnight snacking! Sorry, the shot shows the frame with the bottom on the left! OOPS! |
 |
 |
The joints were assembled with a combination of dowels, biscuit plates, and screws. I used screws wherever they would be hidden, dowels and plates for exposed areas. |
