BTW, I thought someone would be interested in links for the amateur
fibreglasser. Fibreglass is marvelously useful stuff - it can be used to
make telescopes, boats, submarines, tesla coil forms, clipboards,
mailboxes, bikes, car bodies, etc. etc. etc. A good place to get supplies
is Fibreglast:

And, I just recently discovered a free publication put out by an epoxy
manufacturer called "Epoxy Works". It is an EXCELLENT publication, and
well worth the free two-year subscription. Make certain you keep every
copy.
