Press on David,
I so want to see that Pepsi scheme gracing your California sky.
You got work to do, On behalf of many. "Get with it my friend "
I have a correction on the weight cloth I used for the mold. It is 6 oz
Though there wasn't enough cloth to finish the cowl.
There was plenty to do the itsy bitsy blister.
I used 8 layers of cloth plus that honeycomb core.
I wanted this mold to be beefy. Why, you ask ?
I am planning to use vacuum to press the blister layup.
I wanted to make sure the mold did not distort. Hoping to lay a blister up tomorrow.
The mold making really is not that difficult (at least what I have done to date) It's more tedious than difficult.
All the sanding prep was the hard part. The trick is, something has to carry you thru the grunt work.
That something is the image in my head of the finished product.
If you can build an rc airplane, you can mold.
If you can mold, you can build any plan you want and not need a kit.
Fiberglass specialties makes a 1/4 scale cowl and pants for the Red Lion.
One of the reasons I chose to do 1/3 scale is cause it would force me to grow in my hobby.
