[QUOTE="Nexson, post: 6651786, member: 566710"] [B]So I went threw a couple sanding wheels on the dremel and got this thing shaped just the way I want. Usually when feathering the fleece into the plastic, you get the fabric very brittle, this is not a problem because I have a solution. Obviously this panel is going to get a couple layers of glass, but before that, I use an epoxy that gets beneath the fleece and makes a solid bond between the brittle fabric and the panel itself. This allows for a solid foundation for the glass to lay. I went around with the epoxy in all the weak areas . When working with small parts like this, and the parts being plastic, you have to obviously make accommodations. Next I will glass, then fill and sand.[/B] [IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/2nd%20album/IMG_6147.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/2nd%20album/IMG_6148.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/2nd%20album/IMG_6154.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/2nd%20album/IMG_6155.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/2nd%20album/IMG_6156.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/2nd%20album/IMG_6157.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/2nd%20album/IMG_6161.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/2nd%20album/IMG_6163.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/2nd%20album/IMG_6164.jpg[/IMG] [B]I sanded down the epoxy that dried overnight.
