The WEST SYSTEM Epoxy Blog
We're building a Sassafras
Recently, our blog featured the Chesapeake Light Craft Sassafras 16 canoe. We began building one of our own last week, and came a long way on it in three very short days thanks to CLC's exclusive LapStitch™ construction scheme. CLC's LapStitch is essentially a stitch-and-glue construction method devised especially for lapstrake designs. With these CLC kits you can quickly build a round-bottomed, traditional looking lapstrake boat without a using molds or complex rolling bevels. The result is a stiff, strong, leakproof and beautiful boat.
Six10's inner workings
Lately, a few concerned folks have taken the time to call our tech staff to ask why the plunger in their cartridge of Six10® Thickened Epoxy Adhesive stops about halfway up from the end. Quite understandably, some wanted to knowwhy their Six10 cartridge was only "half-full" and wondered if we'd shorted them on epoxy. Others wanted to know (also quite understandibly) why their cartridge "broke" at the halfway point and wondered if they could they get "the rest of the epoxy" out of it.

Has Santa been stuffing your stockings with the same old tired candycanes, aftershave and soap-on-a-rope? Drop him a hint this year; link him to these WEST SYSTEM epoxy products that are small on size, but big on adhesion and handy for all kinds of boat construction and repair needs. They're great for repairs large and small around the house, too.
