Re: pic: Another Cheap Wood Frame Idea

If you intend to fiberglass anything and I mean anything I suggest you stay far away from the cheap polyester(automotive) resin and hardner and only use epoxy resins. Epoxy is a MUCH better adhesive than polyester resin. If properly prepaired it WILL NOT let go of most any material it gets on. I have built an entire 20 foot fishing boat from plywood and WEST system epoxy. I have been in some pretty ugly weather hopping 6 foot waves with it and I still haven't drowned. It is more expensive than polyester resin but you get what you pay for and you are not going to use a lot of it anyway. Don't cheap out here. Go to www.westsystem.com for all the information you will need. No, I am not affiliated with them but I am a true believer.
