There is  a staple gun available that shoots polyester staples which are 
light  brown in color.  You simply sand off the tops and thus the holes are  
already filled.  The hull or deck is then cut off of the forms from below  with 
a 
razor blade, once the s-glass has been installed.  This technique  was used in 
building USA020.  For anyone interested, contact me for the  distributor's 
address.


Bill,  I wondered about this method.  Isn't it a pain in the ass  to crawl 
around under the station assemble and try to lift the hull away from  the forms 
far enough to cut the staples without doing damage to the hull?   Were you 
able to avoid using any screws at all during the process?
