WEST SYSTEM 875 Scarffer

The Scarffer is a unique tool designed by boatbuilders for cutting accurate scarf joints in plywood up to 3/8″ thick. It attaches easily to most circular saws and is easily removed. Saw must have a base plate extension (outside of the blade) ½” or wider. Although there are several different kinds of scarf joints, we advocate using the simplest and most reliable approach, fabricating identical bevels at the ends of the pieces of plywood to be joined. Dry fit these matching bevels, and then permanently bond them with WEST SYSTEM® Epoxy. In many boatbuilding situations, we recommend a ratio of 8-to-1 to determine the size of the bevel. For example, when using 1/2″ (12.5 mm) plywood you need a 4″ long bevel.
