Soon brother soon!!!
So Update no 7 its here guys!
I ve start working on the most difficult part of this mod which is going to take some time and that
is the main top part.
Here you will see the progress which is simple enough, yet very difficult in execution.
I am using fiberglass paste for the rough first fills and then Isopon 38 known as body filler for the finishing touches.
The design is really complex with many many curves and details. The angle of each curve its different (30 to 70 degrees) and I have to create a smooth curve to attach each and every one of them.
The progress requires sanding with grinding wheel, mouse sander, files and by hand.
After I finish sanding I add one more layer of isopon to cover any imperfections and holes and then sand again, then new spots are revealed so I repeat the process over and over again.
I estimate to finish this piece after 50 or 60 hours of work.
I will post the pictures without comments as I ve explained everything already! Enjoy.
Thanks for reading this worklog guys till next time, peace!
OK, Now I get it! When you started covering the big piece of bent plexi in fibreglass I thought you were using the plexi as a plug and making a mould from it and my first thought was "How the hell are you going to get it out the mould"
Now I see the plexi is the base shape which you are working from, I don't think I have seen that done before but I can see that it enables the shape to have some very thin twisted areas where there is no fibreglass/filler just the plexi and some real depth and thickness where there is
Looks like warm weather there, bet the filler goes off quick
That is a lot of sanding!
