I had a few hours for Kismet today. The port side had been mostly painted where I needed to glue (epoxy) my new support hardwood.
So I masked up the area and sanded back to almost bare wood.
The masking tape is 2 to 3mm outside the wedge area.

The starboard side was not painted as much so I sanded back the paint bits and ensured that I had roughed up the epoxy coating.
I also drilled out the lower existing chainplate holes to 6mm (the scuff marks aren't from my drill).
Then I went and got lunch...it took 1 1/2 hours (not lunch, the work).
I was hoping to get the wedges epoxied in place today but it was little too late in the day as I'd like to go back a few hours later to check nothing bad has happened.
