Im very new to carbon and glass fibre, made a few test pieces before I embark on a slightly ambitious piece, a coolant tray/enclosure for my CNC mill. Mould almost complete. Cheers Dave.

The Fibreglass King, cool name I will upload some pics later today, I am just smoothing/varnishing the inside ready for release agent. I am reconsidering my choice/quantity and will probably ask for advice later. Cheers Dave.

The mould is 10mm oversized as I was aiming for 5+mm thickness, maybe thats overkill, not sure. I am just sealing it at the moment, also expecting a UPS delivery today from easycomposites.
