Many thanks for these videos, I find then very useful and enjoyable. Been in the boat business for over 40 years and now retiired . Never attempted wood/grp/varnish as my discipline was always engineering and believed in 'do what you do, do well '. Now's the time for me to expand a bit.
The videos that come through this channel are unusually good. I’m always surprised how few views and comments there are. It’s a fantastic resource to have a hand.
Thanks for this video too.
Thank you for the strength test and breaking the fillet, that's exactly what I have been trying to see. It looks plenty strong and I'm now more confident in the strength of the technique.
He is amazing
Helpful video, thanks 👍
I was eager to watch this "series" but after a short search, only 2 vids on utube #1 & #7
lowered expectations I guess
Its on his website if you want the rest of the videos
Why do your videos not go to the next episodes?
Have to chase them down like a loose kite.
"i would call that successful" hahaha
Hit your wood chisel sticks with a bit of CA on the cutting edge
How do you achieve a filleting putty the same colour as your timber?
Instead of sanding the cured fillets, I wait until the epoxy has gelled well then dip a gloved finger in 70/30 IPA and smooth it down. This makes a glass smooth surface without the hassle of sanding. Feel free to tell me if this is a bad idea. Thanks for the cool video!
Newbie. What is 70/30 IPA?
Isopropyl Alcohol. I tried it and loved it! Use thick gloves. I waited too long but the fillets were still soft. I used acetone and rubbed them smooth. It worked great. Thanks for the tip.
Do you have a patch kit for screw holes that will work to patch the holes in the fiberglass hull? I have to cut the screw off, prob sand into the gelcoat, and patch with something. Thank you.
Do you have anymore videos?
Hi Lee - we don't sell patch kits, but a little thickened epoxy should work great. There are hundreds of videos - including this 10-part series - at www.offcenterharbor.com/all-videos/ if you'd like to check them out.
Nate Rooks thank you so much
I highly recommend this video series as well as others. Especially as a beginner. Using a roller for laying the glass was amazing. Best $45 I ever spent. Thanks!
Anyone know where I can video 2 on the epoxy in all these scrambled up videos
Very frustrating to try to get an education with jumbled up…
They aren't all on RUclips - you can get more of videos at the link in the description.
Website please

So...you put fillets on top of cured fiberglass/epoxy and NOT the other way around?
A bit late of a reply, but for future web searchers: I watched the full video series. I seem to recall that the panels were fiberglassed prior to assembly. So, in this case, the fillets were going on top of glass. A video later in the series goes over adding fiberglass tape over the fillet.
U said garaRge nice.
Also, Russell Brown is like the Bob Ross of epoxy!
“Today let’s make some happy fillets “
I've never had any of the epoxy products, like gorilla or permatex, bond or hold up to anything. All surfaces prepared and cleaned, but still no success.
Russell (and most of the other boatbuilders I know) use WEST System Epoxy. I've used gorilla glue but not permatex, and all I can say is that real 2-part epoxies like WEST are in a different league. They'll bond and hold up to just about anything.
I have a hole in my fiberglass 1987 Thundercraft boat. How should I make sure it’s not going to leak. The guy I bought it from patched it up and it looks good but...
Nate Rooks do they have an all purpose epoxy glue that I can buy
NorthernKanuk I agree with you 💯. Watch the RUclips Project Farm test the epoxy glues. I think JB Weld original came out pretty well. I hope West System glue has an all purpose epoxy glue.
