I need your opinion! Lol ; Carpet-fabric

Steps up...yes I crawl in there to check the oils etc...Salon hatch also comes out which is a bit more roomy.

Forward Vee-Birth done .
New cargo liner above the wall shelves.
New carpet on bunk walls and floor.

Galley steps...

I used a hook blade carpet cutter in my oscillating tool for effortless cutting . It worked really well.

Thanks . It always takes longer than you think to do projects on the boat.
Pulling out all of the old staples was a real blast ! Grrr...

I don’t have a close shot of the set up.
But it went fast on a long cut and much cleaner that a carpet knife.
You can cut circles , U shapes etc with ease. I rarely used my carpet knife/razor.
I’ll get a better photo next week.

Nope . Just a cheap 5 pack of blades from the hardware store.
Utility hook blade for a retractable utility knife.
$10 or so a pack.

Here’s my cutting set up.

Hook blades . Home Depot has them or a good hardware store .$5.00

Finished! Yay !!
Galley dinnet , carpet up to shelf/port nook new cargo liner.

Salon hatches done.
We have an area rug that covers over the seams and also helps protect the carpet.

Going to pick up the reupholstered built in sofa and two club chairs this weekend at my G.F.'s cousin's shop in Tilghman Island Md. with the fabric in my first post. Then haul back to Cape May to reinstall. Hope it looks good....the fabric that is her work is very good. I'll post a photo in a few....

That blade set up was awesome for cutting carpet NYCAP. Don't be afraid it won't hurt!
