OK, the Haigh thread has spontaneously exploded so time to start anew . .
I am reaching the point of fiberglass fairing construction, lower wing to fuselage, cabanes, wheel pant cuffs, modifications to the lower cowling, etc. What is the best material to use for forms these days ? I have been looking at System Three Sculpwood which is a little on the expensive side for a single use product seeing as it is a 2 part mix.
I just made a carbon panel to access the bottom of the torque tube by using foam and drywall plaster - lot of work for a simple panel. I would like to use something easier plus reuseable if possible. I have thought about modeling clay but not sure it would hold up to the squeegie process getting the excess epoxy out of the glass so, ??
Thank you,
