Hi Everyone,
I just completed my first ever setting of the curbside radius boards on my 57 Westerner, Andy.
As seen in the images below, I currently have the boards and the sill board clamped in place. I still need to use the pocket hole jig for the anchoring screws and the staples on the interior need to be added as well.
I have not worked out the thin paneling "spacer" that sits between the sill and the floor joist, yet. The outer edge of the radius boards will be sanded when the kerfing goes in...much later. The left vertical support next to the storage door frame will be removed for a new piece. It's currently the original piece.
The sill is tight up against the lower aluminum frame of the storage access door. I made sure boards to the left were all aligned to sit on top of the sill. Originally, the sill did not sit directly under the aluminum door frame.
I would appreciate any comments or suggestions for improvement before anchoring in the boards.
The upper most diagonal separation near the top clamp is the result of not making that cut at a perpendicular angle to the wood. I had the multi tool(unbenownst to me) angled a bit, thus the gap. I did take the belt sander to it, and that decreased the gap a little.
thanks
Rod
