Re: hull extension in progress with picks
ok.....up date.....where do i start....each day is becoming a blur.....(gotta change those resporator cartridges)
a poster asked about a process on another thread...so.....
glassing small peices is easy when using a wet out table.....you can do two or three peices of cloth or matt at the same time...this way you use less resin and are alot closer to that magical 50/50 resin to glass mix...(optimum stregnth)
it also can speed up the process by a factor of two.....
first make sure you have all the nessary things to start the glassing job.....
tee hee.......
seriously.....all items must be ready before you start mixing resin....
the area to be glassed must be cleaned and acetoned
each peice should be pre cut
im using a 10 oz csm here....this will be for stringer reinforcement......one set of two inch strips were cut and a set of 5 inch....each strip is approx 25 ins long....
the larger 5 inch strips were set on the wet out on the table
then wet out..........remember...saturate the glass fully...no more...no less
then the smaller two inch strips were placed in the middle of the five inch wet strips
just before you place the wet strips you must wet out the area to be glassed
