Hi Todd,

Did it go OK after that? I imagine it would have been a bit more labour – but would work fine.

Most have found the tape works OK, but it does depend on the brand and a little bit on the conditions. Very Cold conditions or dusty conditions do make the tape a bit more difficult, but it seems to work in most cases.

Some of the tapes like “Gorilla tape” are very aggressive and can stick hard enough to pull up wood fibre when they are removed. But warming them with a hot air gun or hairdryer softens the glue the little bit needed.

But nothing wrong with wiring!

Best wishes
Michael

That’s great.

My forum is really useful to find suppliers in most countries.

I would also recommend Duckworks as a company that is great to deal with and has many things that you will need to build the boat.

Best wishes
