Hi,

In a recent thread there was a suggestion of making prototypes in Glass Fibre.
In doing this would I exchange carbon fibre 2/2 twill 3K 195g with woven glass 2/2 twill 200gsm or are there any differences which would make a another grade of glass more of a match? I will be using infusion.
I realise I will not get the strength of Carbon. It is just for me to practice before investing in Carbon fibre.

Brian.

Thank you both for your help.
If it works out I will tell you all about it.
I have to make the moulds and wait for the weather to warm up before I start.
