glass dilemma

Between layers you should lightly sand off the burs ( sharp bumps ) then wipe the glass with acetone shortly before applying the next layer.

REMEMBER to wipe the dust and dirt off before applying each layer.  This will prevent air pockets which weaken fiberglass.

sorry if these are too small....still trying to figure out this new camera.

Used the divider to strentghen the back side of the box.

all the rings in place.

this morning we streched the fleese....it was 30 deg's in sunny florida this morning....not as cold as you guys up north but for here it's butcold!

this is another view the staples were used to keep the shape of the rings.....do i have to remove them?

here it is with the first three coats of resin applied,  you may ask why three?....well the first and second were applied with only half the needed hardner, the cold got to me and i miss calculated, once i warmed up i realized my error and we mixed up another batch with just a wee bit more hardener and the set in the sun to increase the heat and it hardened in a couple of hours.......man is it stiff...the glass not me. will let it set till next weekend and then we will start the layers of fiberglass. any comments or sugestions are appreciated.
