Bottom of wings fiberglassed

This memorial day weekend we had 3 great volunteers help early Saturday morning to fiberglass the bottoms of the wings.

The first wing went great, but by the time we started working on the second wing, it was clear it was getting too hot.  Both wings came out fine, but the second one will take a little more cleanup and sanding that the first.

We found that 5 people seemed to be the right number of people to accomplish this.  We had 1 person pumping epoxy and making Micro, 2 people wetting out cloth on the templates we made, and then Dad and I placed the fiberglass and applied the peal ply.

I have heard very differing amounts of how much Epoxy was needed.  We decided to start with fresh cans to see what it took.  When we were all done, we had about 1/3 of a gallon left of Resin.  It took roughly 2/3 of a gallon for the bottom of the wing.  10 Yards of KR Cloth and 10 yards of Peal Ply seem to be about right for each side.

Thanks to all my helpers!  Jeff, John, and Rama (and of course Dad!)
