Building The TotalBoat Sport Dory: Episode 7 - The False Bottom

In this episode, Lou begins construction of the false bottom of his TotalBoat Sport Dory. The false bottom will be constructed out of 3 layers of 3 inch plywood that will be cut to size with a saber saw and then all glued together on top of the jig. Because the boat is longer than each piece of plywood, Lou will need to scarf two pieces together for each layer. This process will be repeated by tracing the first layer for each of the next two layers with help from apprentice Joe. The actual bottom of the Dory will be built over this false bottom.
