Hi
I am considering whether to accept a recent request is to make a 480mm circular mirror frame to be fitted to the bulkhead in a yacht, the bulkhead is varnished timber (light teak).
I've no problem in producing a circular frame in one piece, from one block of Australian Red Cedar. I propose to finish the frame in Tung Oil.
As I see it the frame should be screwed to the bulkhead.
I am looking for help here as I have not made anything to be fitted to a yatch before, are the any hidden problems?
