No, Sorry. I don't have anything like that. How about this source: Gold Metal Models

I am going to use the epoxy resin/fiberglass powder mix and put a coat of that on the hull plug as final coat so I can scribe easier. Want to know if you have any PE mesh for the vents on the Yankee sail. If you have the Yankee plans I sent you you can see what size rectangle mesh. Looks like 1mm x 2mm. I have dug through all my stuff and looked on the net but can't find. Would be better to glue PE mesh to sail instead of trying to scribe.1 PhotoLeave a comment:

The way I made a surface coat when I was laying up hulls I mixed up epoxy resin and fiberglass powder. Mixed it until it was like syrup. Brushed a coat of that in the molds to pick up all the detail. Then I started laying down 4oz cloth. I will do that on the final coat of resin on the hull. I use needle/jewelers files ground to shape and thickness I need. I use a carbide chop wheel for a dremel and shape them. Those files will stay sharp for a lot of scribe work. Then I use a small wet stone to sharpen them.

Getting down to the wire. Sail is primered and ready for my least favorite thing scribe work. Just have to start laying coats of epoxy,sand and primer and that's ready for scribe. Used 3 layers of 4oz boating cloth on hull and sail. Hull is heavy from using 21/2lb styrofoam.

I am serious about the foxtrot......I want one.
no hard feelings on the long bin whiskey, honestly, it will really stand out pond side and no one will have another like it (unless they are in disguise LOL)
All kidding aside, I want to see it being built. Please post updates!Leave a comment:
