Default RE: TF Spitfire Build (Gold Kit)

I'm following the motto, if at first you don't succeed, or don't like it, try again. As I looked through all the threads and pictures i decided to make another wheel covering. I still have the first one so nothing is lost. I'm now using 5oz fiberglass. I used the same method of the printer transparency to cover the hole but i did notice that the weight of the epoxy and glass causes the covering to go a little flat. So after i applied the epoxy i tapped it all down to the wing and turned the wing over for drying. I checked it with a straight edge and so far it looks good. The morning will tell all. I will post the results.
