	Boat building - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rot resistant woods such as cedar and oak are generally selected for wooden boat construction.
		Glue, screws and/or nails are used to join the wooden components.
		Some types of wood construction include carvel, in which a smooth hull is formed by wooden planks attached to a frame.

		This left a nice open 'v' to later fill with syringed epoxy to glue the seam and then sawdust thickened epoxy to fill the 'v' with a miniature fillet to ensure the seam was strongly bonded.
		Temporarily stitched the deck to the bow to figure out where the cockpit would be placed (from the drawings the front of the cockpit is 7' 11 1/2" from the bow).
		Used this fill the seams between the stitches and plastered that around areas where there were gaps and filleted the temporary 'T' overhang around the stern to hold things together.

	MCA: Stitch & Tack & Tape & Glue - Is it Torture? by Philip Jacobs
		Beads or fillets of thickened epoxy (glue) are applied to permanently join the edges, which are then reinforced with fiberglass tape and resin.
		As the width of strips or panels increase relative to the radius and complexity of the curves, increased clamping pressure and glue strength is required to make flat pieces conform to the desired hull shape.
		The various methods of stitching and tacking are used to either temporarily or permanently hold the plywood panels in the desired hull shape until the glue and/or tape and resin cure.

	Stitch and glue canoe building project
		All was well until I and a friend started stitching the boat up and the bottom panels didn't match at the seam, so we both applied pressure to get them in alignment.
		With that done I continued tightening the stitches until the bottom halves started to move upward at the ends and had to quit for the evening.
		Mixed some thickened epoxy for glue and attached the breasthook in place, then mixed more in putty consistancy for the seal around the bulkhead.

	Building Stitch and Glue Kayaks (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The "Stitch and Glue" method of building a kayak uses plywood to make the skin of the boat.
		The basic process is: panels of plywood are "stitched" together with wire, tape or tie-wraps; a filet of thickened epoxy is pushed into the corner between the each panel and then fiberglass is laid over the joint.
		The stitch and glue method is a quick way to make a kayak, and as long as you are careful, it is fairly easy.

	Stitch and Glue Kayak Designs - Plywood kayaks by One Ocean Kayaks
		The inspiration to build the ultimate hard chine, stitch and glue kayak was all too easy.
		To instill a plywood kayak with some of the nice characteristics of its wood strip cousins took some creative tweaking but the effort paid off and I just couldn't be happier with the cruiser that was born.
		For its size and displacement, the stitch and glue Cirrus is feather light at 35lb and it features the largest 'hull flare' of all One Ocean Kayak designs.

		Building a stitch and glue, plywood canoe, a pirogue, a skiff and a pram.
		There are many different methods to build a wooden boat (such as cedar strip and plank on frame), but the stitch and glue or tack and tape method is by far the easiest, fastest, cheapest and in most cases lightest method of boat building.
		Stitch and glue, using the proper modern materials produces a very strong boat that will stand up to years of use with a minimum of maintenance.

	Building the hull of my sailing / rowing dinghy
		Methods like "stitch and glue" or "tape and tack" boil down to a sort of bending the longer hull parts (bottom, side parts) around and fixing them at bulkheads and stern of the boat.
		For stitch and glue copper wire or plastic fasteners are used to "sew" the parts together while the first fixation with tape and tack goes through tape and screws, nails or with a tacker.
		I couldn´t resist to change it a bit to stitch and glue and screw since I feel more comfortable with some screws holding the construction in the first place.

		Ranging in length from 7 to 40 feet--so graceful, pert, and purposeful they seem to have been born on the waves--these boats belie the fact that they are built from sheet plywood using wire stitches and epoxy glue.
		Stitch and glue allows the builder to make strong frameless monococque structures in which the entire skin, and not just the frames, carries the load.
		Every aspect of stitch and glue boatbuilding is covered in great detail, from shop practice to lofting, assembling and finishing the boat.

		The basic steps for the builder are to cut out the two bottom panels, the side panels and the transom (SEE "LOFTING").
		These parts are then stitched together with the baling wire along the panel seams.

		It's a bit wider than most kayaks for wiggling about in while you fish, and the design includes floatation chambers at both ends, also, and a wide open cockpit so you don't need to be an expert in Eskimo rolling to get out if it flips over.
		It is built by the by the "stitch and glue" construction method so requires no forms or jigs.
