After reading some tips on Bjørn Thomassons (master strip plank builder and kayak+canoe designer) website, I tried a new metod for grinding off epoxy last night. With a coarse cleaning disc in the angle grinder, it was very easy to remove any epoxy from the hull panel. They moving on to the belt sander and the sanding pad in the drill. Without having to sand off the epoxy with the beltsander, it was much quicker sanding the hull. I also used far less sandpaper!
One needs to be really careful with the angle grinder though. 100% concentration all the time!
Tomorrow night I hope to get time to use the longboard a bit on panel #5. Otherwise, it is ready for glassing on the outside. One learns all the time..
