Bulkheads, Bulkheads, Bulkheads!



2 x 6 x 16 ripped down to 3/4 slices for shear clamps

The plans include some pretty nifty templates

Thank god for the wood shaper to take the rough edges off. Also, if your line isn't exactly straight, the wood shaper, being around a foot long will help your line get straight again.
Bulkheads cut out
Bulkheads test fitted with wood bracing but not glued yet
$29 dollar Harbor Freight air stapler purchased just for this
Notice edge of bulkhead has PL construction adhesive spread on the edges of the bulkhead awaiting clamping of edge bracing and stapling.  This stuff is sticky, remember to wear gloves.
