I'm curious how you vacuum bag a coaming. Do you wrap plastic around the deck taping the edges, or do you need a bag as long as the kayak?

: :One of these days I'll buy a vacuum pump...

: For a piece that size? use two shopvacs with the heat protection crisscrossed
: so when one heats up the other kicks in.
: Or just attach to the air intake of any compressor, set one of those timers
: you put directly on the plugs to get the compressor on at regular
: intevals, leaving the "air out" valve open it will make it pump
: everytime the timer goes on, it doesnt take much if the piece is small so
: the compressor doesnt really suffer.
: I just use the two shopvacs with an inline valve so they dont need to work
: all the time, they just go on every 5 minutes.
