opinions please--
what is your opinions of a few test projects done in polyester and fiberglass?
as in--to polish our skills and the way we do what we do, to cut costs and ultimately
have us make successful projects. i know the cost savings are there, but even polyester
is not cheap either.
the learning curve is there, but the costs really hurt when a project fails to go as hoped. do
you think the materials and techniques are similar enough for this to even be worth it?
or do we double down on being really focused on the task at hand and just take our lumps as they come?
thanks for all useful replies
