Hi all, 

I'm currently at college doing A levels and for my next year project I was going to make a Kayak... talk about setting my aims high.

I've been looking and the matting available here and am completely lost on what to choose, is the heavier the g/m the better for a kayak? Or how about the non directional matting? I really have no idea!

Also for moulds... I was thinking about building one from thick sheets of MDF laid up and cut to form a mould, but I'd like to know of any better ideas? Thanks so much!

Kind Regards, 
Clarissa
