Got the next layer of sheer clamps scarfed and glued up... another set of long boards running across my garage.

Dane is getting to be quite the expert at helping me get them straight... he sits at one end and sights down the board, telling me which way to move things. We find that eyeballs can be just as accurate if not more than trying to use a straightedge. After getting them lined up, he comes and acts as a mobile weight (he stands on them) and we fasten them for gluing.

Did wind up getting the epoxy mixed thicker than I normally have used... KB of Tubby Tug fame recommends getting it thick... I hadn't really intended this to be the experiment, but it wound up that way, so we went with it. We'll see how it comes out.
