I also did some trials with my penetrating epoxy. That stuff smells bad, I must go and get a respirator. I painted the stuff on a scrap of mahogany and also on the ply that I am using for my floor timbers. Then after drying I cut the pieces in half to see how the penetration had gone. Not as much as I would have thought, although it seemed to suck into the wood quite readily when I painted it on. The instructions say I can thin it for the first coat by up to 10% so I am currently researching suitable thinners.
Work commitments are still a bit of a killer, but I'm hopeful of getting the frames all assembled and encapsulated by early November.
