    Fiberglassing has always been one of those "no thanks, its too hard" things. That tutorial actually gives me some desire to experiment with it. Maybe I'll give that a shot when/if I get my new car :D

    Not me. Im way too familiar with my limitations as a craftsman. Im lucky if I can piece 6 peices of wood together to make a square box. I shudder to think what would happen if I tried messing with 'glass! LOL

    i dunno, if you can build a cube with only 4 sides, i'd say you're one hell of a craftsman! :D

    Believe me, fiberglassing is not hard to do at all. The only thing you really need to take into consideration is what the temp. is outside when you are doing it. To much MEKP will turn a bowl of resin into a bowl of fiberglass quick, and i mean quick if the temp. is above 70 degrees.:D

    So, Macleod, would this be a bad time to bring up the fact that the picture you posted was stolen from a weightlifting magazine, and that you're really 6'3" and weigh 120? :D
