Default RE: CAP or Extra?

The kevlar is , or was sold under K & S engineering, it came on a bobbin, like the kevlar pull/pull setups now a days. The low viscosity resin is sold through almost any marine/ boat store, it takes a lot longer to cure, but you can pick your hardener rate, fast, med, or slow. I use slow for glass layup on finishes, like glassing the sheeting. Fast is used for fuel proofing, medium is used for structural joints, but I still use hobby epoxies too, 6 minute and 30 to 45 minute as well. I got the bottom and top sheeting done, just need to add the trailing edge and do the hinging, then it's put to the side and the fuse gets started. I really haven't had too much time to work on it until today, but I'll be bouncing back and forth between the extra and the skybolt as usual. Get anymore done?
