Stripping the Deck, Part 2
I worked a few hours each night over the next two weeks to finish the deck.
Tracing the opening for the last strip Cutting strip with bandsaw
The last strips on each side of the deck required fitting
strips with a curve along one side.  To help cut the strip, I
first made a tracing of the opening.
I glued the tracing to a strip with spray adhesive.  I used
my bandsaw to cut the strip slightly outside the line.  A
block plane was used to fine tune the fit.

The fit was tighter than expected.
Strapping tape was used to hold the strip in place while
the glue dried.
