Default RE: Black Magic VF3 Build Thread

oaky a few pics on preping the margins of side one...

I found that 220 grit on the block cuts the MBs and resing really well. You want to sand off the MBs to the weave in the overlapping margin areas, you also need to clean up any resin runs, lose threads, clumps of MBs and dry areas of cloth. a little extra attention to detail here can save time in the finial sanding phases.

again just take your time using a point light source to feather the best you can. we really only need about 1/4 of cloth overlap. I usually do a little more around the front turtle deck behing the cowl just to add a little strength.

and I am going to try and adjuct my camera for better focus on the next round of pics - for your viewing pleasures....
