Because this is my thread, and I do whatever I want with it, I’m going to continue posting about the the ebike. I don’t care that it’s an esk8 forum, I’ll burn this puppy down.
I used Bondo brand woven cloth for body work (only thing Home depot had) and the same ol Famowood table top resin. The enclosure on Deep Purple 2 is rock hard and pretty much bulletproof with all how thick I left it. I put some 1/8" plywood and glassed that into place to with 5-6 tabs of the same glass. came out pretty solid.
The package, strangely enough, did not state the thickness of the cloth, but it felt like a medium weave neutral axis 6oz cloth. I put at least 3 lams of that to start, more in corners and along edges. Since this was woven cloth, I had to notch the glass. Do this while the cloth is still dry unless you hate your scissors. Which, by the way, must be of decent quality and sharp to cut glass cloth.
The ply helps a lot with the stiffness, so did the carbon
