My First Go At A Little Glassing ***new Pics Added 11-28***

[ChevyBoy]

it appears to be cloth that youre using instead of mat. the mat will be stronger if you use it.

anyone wanna see some updated pics? i layed down a layer of glass on the rear baffle tonight.

[FieroGrande]

I do

[dwright27]

well here are the pics from last night

laying it.

i got blue gloves on but they didnt last long.

even got the area behind the port wall without taking the port out.

this box was more difficult to glass imo because i didnt wanna take it apart like the port and stuff out so i left it in, and got scraped up and resin all in my arm hair, lol.

any creative criticism? all is accepted.

did you calulate in the displacement of that 4x4?

[JustinT]

damn...a 4x4. That'll work

[dwright27]

did you calulate in the displacement of that 4x4?

nah, but by estimate the box is around 2.4 cubes or so after ALL displacements. i think it was just over 3.4 cubes gross.

damn...a 4x4. That'll work

lol yea i get no flex from the face the top or the bottom, and with the resin i shouldnt get any from the rear of the box eithier. the weight addition was substantial from pre resin to post resin.
