    Custom/Hybrid Infusion ratio resin/fabric

    The mesh can be smaller, but the fabric and peel ply should be the same size. Sent from my Moto G (5S) Plus using Tapatalk

    Custom/Hybrid Infusion ratio resin/fabric

    Also cut your flow material to end a couple inches from the edge all the way around. This will create a brake zone and help slow the flow near the end of the infusion so the resin doesn't race right to your spiral before you clamp the feed line.

    Custom/Hybrid Infusion ratio resin/fabric

    My process is to apply your bag tape to the mold and weight the mold. Then get all your fabric and consumables loaded in and bagged up. Weight the loaded mold and calculate the difference. That's how much weight in resin you'll need with excess included. The 40/60 will happen as long as you...

    Other Anyone else considering changing jobs in this current economic climate?

    OK, here's my story so I'll try not to drag it out too long. I have always had jobs loosely classified as an install or repair technician. I started off in the car audio industry in 1994 and spent nearly 17 years combined as an installer/supervisor. I liked the job and met some cool people...

    Other How to turn myself into a Superjet

    You need modify a large cardboard box into a half scale ski that you fit inside of. That way you can quickly paint it with some cheap house paint. Have the nose of the hull be your head like its jumping completely vertical and use your arms in front of you as the hand pole. (long sleeve shirt)...

    Custom/Hybrid Carbon fiber fiberglass resin dust hazards

    I built my first two hulls in one garage stall enclosed in plastic with zero ventilation. Vey bad idea. I was just trying to keep the overspray off the rest of my toys and didn't realize what I was doing to my throat and lungs. Eventually it became harder to swallow my food without getting...

    I want to see pics of that engine compartment. What exhaust are they running. I thought my ski was tiny and I had a hell of a time making everything fit.

    Presque Isle Freeride July 20-23, 2017

    So I'm starting to take a closer look at the maps in regards to the camping spot and the beach. Safe to say this is not walking distance. We are pulling an enclosed trailer stuffed with 6 or 7 skis that will also double as a "camper" at the camp ground when unloaded. I assume we are not...

    Oh man, thanks. I try to keep a low profile. Haha. I shaved a few more lbs off with my own carbon chamber and footholds now. We will probably be rolling in sometime on Thursday. You're more than welcome to take it for a spin, but I want to play on that Phantom for a bit. Send me your digits...

    Presque Isle Freeride July 20-23, 2017

    I emailed Paul today asking about camping out of a 14' enclosed trailer. He had no issues with it and quoted the same $25 a night per site for 4 people and $5 a night for each extra person. Limit 2 vehicles per site. It's not technically an rv or camper, but thought I'd let you know. See you...

    Scribner fuel jugs

    So I grabbed a couple as well. They are definitely smaller than the VP jugs. Either my local gas pump was off or these jugs are not 5 gallons. I was at 4.4 when I hit the 5 on the side and couldn't squeeze a drop more than 4.6 gals in. I'm going to treat them like a 4 gallon jug. Anyone else...

    Does anyone sell gatorgrip anymore

    The solid black gator grip that I used wasn't shiny or slick. Of course I used that in the tray and the gray/black on the gunwales so I can't vouch for other colors in the tray. You guys and your damn rasslin' shoes..... :eek:
