Got another one of these to make. Fingers crossed for an equally good result.
Wax on. Wax off.
Been doing it all night brother, your technique is working gooooood
Gelcoat in. Going for as transparent as possible with this one. Hoping it doesn’t come up looking all patchy like a lot of raw fibreglass stuff that I’ve seen.
I am going to give this a try next enclosure. this thing is going to be a beast…
Excited for this one. Very curious to see just how transparent it will be. It looks promising.
Layup is:
Gelcoat - 150ml
200gsm cloth
800gsm woven roving
600gsm woven roving
800gsm woven roving
200gsm cloth
I used 200ml of resin as well as the 150ml gelcoat. This thing should be fucking bombproof.
What gelcoat and resin are you using bro?
The resin is slow cure epoxy from www.trojanfibreglass.com.au
To make the gelcoat, I just mix it with fused silica to get my desired consistency
Not as successful as my first pull, got a few little bubbles and imperfections in the corners in the gelcoat on this one. Can be fixed.
It does have some transparency, but not much.
That’s some sexy glass work…
Hey guuuyyyyys…
I figured the missus is never gonna let me have my 42 back… and I’ve been asked several times about an enclosure for it… so lets see what happens
Farrrk. Must resist.
LoL offtopic, you got me all excited
An enclosure for “the longest Demonseed that can actually be obtained” is really cool also though
You in the uk ?
No
He’s in AUS — but the shipping is terrible to AUS not from AUS, at least that’s the case here in the USA
Postal workers health care plans I suspect. Maybe Biden will bring in free healthcare like the rest of the world.
I would settle for just the metric system.
is that the 44 or the 42?
42
probably needs a new thread
I suppose so. I’ve been looking at the deamonseed some time ago, shame they are not making the 44 anymore
