Hi all,

I tried the technique with a strip of tear-off tissue, and put 80 g/sqm glass over it. I scratched the glass after full setting of the resin and had a very usable hinge! I cannot tell more about how long it lasts etc.

Marcus Koch used this technique on some high performance electric birds. If I recall correctly, he also mentioned that a strip of kevlar can be used instead of the tear-off tissue. The kevlar will certainly be the more expensive option. Mr Koch did beautiful work on making full-molded planes AND documenting the whole process.

You will certainly find more about it when you scan the forums for "Eisvogel" and "M. Koch".

Best regards,

Kris
