Factory Work
Framing
- We attach pressure treated lumber directly to steel ribs (stiffeners) on both the overhead and bulkheads to create a true plane
Sheeting
- We create template patterns out of strips of 1/4" plywood and fit sheeting to create a water tight surface that can be washed down
- The medium is plastic coated ply in conjunction with phenolic resin panels (solid plastic food grade surfaces)
Trim
- We fabricate trim, entry doors and cover panels from solid phenolic resin sheeting (water impervious)
- We use high-grade stainless steel fasteners and outside corner trim
- We can start with the bare hull of the ship, secure lumber, sheet, and trim all in house - you end up with a finished product
- There are multiple penetrations through the surface of our work and all have to be fit water tight
General
- We are well versed in all woodworking aspects of ship repair
