Looks good! I did the same thing pretty much when gluing the carpet to the metal lid of my storage box; I also used clamps and a good stiff board. I used the Henry 663 I/O glue from Lowe's, and a notched trowel. Got the carpet set, then used a wooden rolling pin to smooth it down.
 
Well this is how I spent my Easter Sunday, I pulled everything off the rod lockers it came out perfect, I finished one of the rod lockers and glued down the carpet on the front casting deck, Monday I will do more.

I'm fairly new here and getting around to checking out more work that people have done. You're doing a great job. Looks nice. All you're prep work is paying off.
 
Thanks guy's I have gotten a lot of good info from this site and a lot of it has helped me. I know it's taking a long time to put the carpet in, there is no way I want to rush this job I have seen other people rush the boat Modifications and they turn out looking bad.
 
[bIt was the standard indoor outdoor carpet it has nice rubber backing, out here in Calif I called 5 different lowes stores they didn't have any marine type carpet[/b]
 
Woke up early today and did more carpet work, I also had to make something that would hold the end of the rods up when they are in the rod tube's

I ordered some flex / lip trim plastic molding to put on the inside lip of the rod lockers, so what do you think? I like it
