Default working with fiberglass molding: the basics

figure with a new forum, might as well get off to the right start and have a thread with perhaps some useful pictures, links, FAQ's, etc.

Anyone like to start sharing the wealth of knowledge?

A good resource for info and supplies is http://www.fibreglast.com/

I get most of my supplies locally though through West Marine and use there west systems epoxies because they don't require a scale to mix.

As a beginner like myself I found this site to be pretty helpful in getting some basic knowledge on building enclosures.

THere's a place that I found that is pretty cheap and they send you a sample pack of the different twills and kevlar and carbon samples. All for free. I'll look around and try to find the place.
