A little project

Post by excavman »

What do you do with unused, unoccupied fasterners that are there for a totally unknown reason? They're un-American!!

There are three screws on each side of the main hatch which seem to have no purpose.

Do I smell a "project" coming on? I have some thin, bendable strips of cedar leftover from some of my other projects and I found some very cute half sized clothes pins at Wally-World.

Image

Now let's add a little varnish and put those lazy screws to work.

Image

Now instead of tripping over loose jibs sheet and halyard tails and doing a header over the lifeline I can stuff them in a handy-dandy stuff bag. And it's patriotic, too.

Happy 4th guys.

Excavman,

Did I mention that the weather is so nice all year round here.
