the kevlar was from a US site for end of run sections. I did the
conversion for the dollar but did not include freight, a one off that
may not repeat itself. Cheaper glass is good news. Poly core deal is
very good. I reckon on about a quarter of that 200 sheets for a
harry. Have to do some more detailed measuring and work out how much
hard deck I want. I suspect when I add on the deck and beams it'll be
about 45 sheets, and 50 if I go for wingmasts. I'm presuming for the
offer of buy back of glass that we pay freight and don't splatter it
with resin :~)That is very generous.
Now I'm back working I can get my mastercard down and think of
spending again,
Robert

the kevlar is incredibly cheap.
