Default RE: alturnitve to wood for stringers

This is a pix that I left out from the above pix's.



This is the waste factor when doing vacuum bagging.



What you see in that pile is the bag [which can be just a piece of 2mil visqueen / plastic sheeting.]



You also see a sheet of bleeder material. it is a cotton like fabric that allows air to go thru and absorbs the excess resign.

4oz bleeder cloth is $4.75yd. That is 60in X 36in



Next is the Peelply. This is what will allow everything to release from the laminate. Never try to pull the peelply until the laminate is fully cured. It is $6.50yd to $10.50yd depending on what resign you use. Again this is 60in X 36in



Once used, this is ALL thrown in the trash.

Here are all the parts fitted in my boat.
