Dowel Rod Trimmer

[OH Osthaus]

hmm, like Stan

all I did was measure the depth inside the hull to 2 7/8 outside -then put an slightly angled cut there on a dowel the just fits the hull and epoxied a utility knife blade in it -

just takes less than two seconds to spin a hull down to size

Thanks for your input. Sounds easy enough.
