[QUOTE="AlexB, post: 417175, member: 21169"] A couple pics of the new transom wood. It's 3 layers of 1/2" ACX (Aruoco brand) bonded together with Titebond III. As suggested, I rough cut the pieces, glued, screwed, piled with sacks of concrete while it cured/dried, then did the final cuts. This proved very helpful, since the outside edges pulled apart slightly as the glue cured. The board fits nice n' snug, so I wedged it in there and marked each bolt hole location. 6 holes for the transom braces, 4 holes for the transom mounted beach wheels, and 4 holes for the carrying handles. After drilling the holes (then "over drilling", filling with epoxy, and re-drilling), I'll treat the wood using the "old timer blend" of boiled linseed oil, mineral spirits, and spar urethane.[img]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160706/4a25f63d185bab8e39b5622461f737df.jpg[/img][img]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160706/d091ca7cbe086a03ce65d8e32458c210.jpg[/img] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
