| 1/03/06 Now it's time to install the false flange, as explained previously. |
 |
|
To fully fill the gap between the plug and the flange I used poly-fair. |
| When the poly-fair has cured, I can remove the surplus easily. |  |
|
I covered the mold with brown paper and tape, then
I shot two layers of the PVA de-molder onto the flange. Because the
flanges had a rough surface, they needed an extra thick coat of PVA
de-molder. |
| After the PVA dried, the paper was removed and I sprayed it with some neutral mold gel coat, adding a beautiful pigment! |  |
|
50 minutes later I laminated 1 layer of 1oz/sq inch fiberglass with mold resin. Don't bother with the color this time. |
| Next time: Mold 1/4 in thick, wood structure, de-molding, etc... | |
|
In Dec 2007, Jim Iwaskow contacted Philippe, who said that he had abandoned this project for now.
