    Lamination Schedule Order - Which cloth type should be used where?

    After some thought I realized I've been practicing in the garage and back yard for 4yrs now I could have a degree even but I learned the hands-on way on my own and I don't think anything could have replaced that in retrospect. That's the field grade vs paperwork thing again I guess, and it is...

    Not a Design but a Use Case change: Prop changes as needed?

    For small mud motored vessels I've found that trial and error of many size and shape props is very common thanks to the affordability of the props. They'll even send free ones to try sometimes. That is a very different case with a large brass propeller I'm sure you would know well .. There are...

    Lamination Schedule Order - Which cloth type should be used where?

    We have great opportunities in America when we refuse to relent in advancing toward them. It's been amazingly inviting and informative and welcoming for me in the boat industry as I come to the light that it casts. I came from the fine art industry which is fairly disastrous and based almost...

    Lamination Schedule Order - Which cloth type should be used where?

    I wasn't supposed to graduate high school so I turned around and worked for a college a few years later. Honestly the brain challenge appeals to me almost as much as having fun on the water at this point as a sort of backhanded lifestyle remarking to my troubled youth and what things my...

    Lamination Schedule Order - Which cloth type should be used where?

    There's 2 methods to this thing, field-grade and the paperwork backed kind. As I move toward production from my personal use small-scale fiberfodder, learning these specific mathematics and physics becomes greatly more important. It also frustrates me greatly that I am simply not at an educated...

    Lamination Schedule Order - Which cloth type should be used where?

    Makes sense thanks TANSL I figured a thinner outer layer of CSM works the best like an exterior surfacing veil. I can picture it as a water balloon and the weight of the forces of the contained liquid are most amplified at the skin's surface

    Lamination Schedule Order - Which cloth type should be used where?

    I read that using roving or biaxial on the exterior-most surface provides greater strength but experience tells that CSM is the typical exterior cloth in a normal layup schedule for it's smoothness, so which is preferable on the use of a hull?

    How many layers of which type of fiberglass

    I read the other original thread thru now and feel it's gonna cost every part of $100-200k minimum especially with the reference given so any attempts to cut cost by sacrificing quality of build material in the hull are unacceptable and futile in the long run. It's an exceptional first build to...
