Nailer strips

[Aaron Coffee]

Plan on putting nailer strips on the inside of the walls, between the spars. I think that is where I ran into problems with headlinder trim on the first one, when I was trying to nail trim through paneling with no backing behind the paneling, the trim would flex and break(just my theory). Can't decide whitch method to use cut a narrow strip to the contour of the wall or just cut little blocks. I did epoxy the inside inch of the walls so I figure I could use epoxy to glue whichever method.
Thoughts?

Finding little blocks might be hard when trying to nail stuff.

You could always cut them to contour, that way they wouldn’t have to be bent to shape, they’d already be there. You could use a 1x6 and cut them out in segments so you wouldn’t waist too much wood (or as much anyway).

...here's a pic of mine...I used doubled 1.5"strips of 1/2 ply(cabinet grade) for my spars and used additional material to cut to profile the nailer strips which were attached using an air stapler and TiteBondIII...worked awfully well for me...
