Cedar Strip Small Craft Construction

Next, cut three wedges and epoxy them to the transom as shown in the photo. The width of the top end of the center wedge should be 2 inches tapering down to 0 at the opposite end. The two side wedges should be 1 1/2 inches at the top. Match the wedges to the transom from top to bottom. Use 1/4 transom length spacing.

Glue strips across the wedges, the width of the transom starting with the first strip at the widest part of the transom. Continue gluing strips down until you reach the bottom edge of the transom. Use a staple gun to staple the strip ends in place until the glue sets.
