    Had a friend call me the other day . Said he bought a pos deck at the flea market , and needed me to install it for him real quick . I asked him what kind, and he said some off brand japanese chit . Cool , told him to come on over . Told him to stop and pick up a dash kit and a plug from wally world on his way. He shows up , bringing the usual payment ( 12 pack of corona ) . I said let's see how big of a pos you bought . He pulled out the deck , and I damn near fainted . That sob got a nakamichi cd700 II at the fooking flea market for $50 Why can't I get that lucky ?

    i wanna learn how to build stuff out of fg. maybe i have to find the materials first... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Start small , and get a feeling for how the resin set's up , how the mat and cloth are different . Watch the resin soak into a piece of each. Notice the color change . get that down , and your well on your way <{POST_SNAPBACK}> so, the only 'special' supply i'd need is the resin ? what's that mat made out of ? what's the first material you put resin on ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> To mess around you will need resin and mekp ( catalyst ) mat and or cloth ( made of fiberglass ) Brush or two something to mix it in preferably disposable and some gloves You can expirement with different kinds of materials for stretching shapes . Basic thing your looking for is high polyester content , and good stretch. Lycra is a good one , a is fleece , t shirt works well for lite projects. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> thank you kind sir. now, time to ask a a local installer to find out where i can get the supplies. if i am not asking too much, when you want to make a strong box / panel (like a sub box) is necessary to add multiple layers of mat ? if so, what do you put between them ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Depends , if it's big and flat . Make it out of wood . If it has some curves or not so large . You can do a couple different things . You can simply go layer upon layer of mat , switching the bias 90 degrees each layer until you get it as stiff as you want . Don't put anything in between , it's just mat or cloth and resin . When the resin cures the layers become one mass . But if weight is a concern , you can use reinforcment ribbing in between a couple layers. And cut down the number of layers to get the same stiffness . You can lay a couple layers of mat , then some lengths of poly rope . Soak the rope in the resin , then lay it on the mat . Let it cure then throw a couple more layers of mat over it
