modified workspace.
yeah, it's funky, but works for now.
clamped the 1st mold section to the fender, and the fender to a horse
then cleaned up the sanded fender surface
clay and pva
gelcoat sprayed
1st lay-up of veil, then chop strand and roving in the corners, then 2 layers of .75 mat
I've currently got that section finished, prepping the front of the fender- The last part!@!!!@!!!!!! woot!@
I've also started on the passenger, measured and cut off the arch, I cut out, flipped and tacked the marker light at a higher location, and started on the build for the lip...
Also I'm doing different test lay-up of different combinations of mat, cloth and cores. I will do tensile, flex(or deflection), and crush tests with them until I find what I think will work the best. I need to get some different resins and epoxies to test as well.
So making good progress, I should be able to pull a test fender in the next few weeks, I have to leave the molds on the fender for at least a week, to minimize shrinkage and warping, but it won't be too much longer, and I'll be pulling some panels.
