Sweet! Nice job!
Thanks. I was worried it would turn out heavy adding that extra layer of 6oz E. The 6oz felt like laying heavy carpet on the deck compared to the 4oz S.
Big difference between the two cloths.
Very happy it came out super light.
BTW, Capt Ron's tips on pin holes was a huge help. No pin holes this time.
DW,
Awesome!
few questions, why Dumpster Diver?
what was the tip on Pin Holes

Dumpster Diver is a Channel Islands model I liked the look of. I enlarged a photo of that board and traced it in CAD, then printed it full size and traced it onto my blank.
I did my hot coat is 2 steps.
1) A half size resin batch spread with squeegee, up-down, side to side, over and over again filling the weave.
2) Another half size batch of hot coat resin poured and spread with a brush over the resin just applied with a squeegee.
DW,
that is unreal what you did, I remember seeing the board and you followed the shape with your CADD program, that is teriffic that you made it into a SUB, you guys are ridding it smaller and smaller. Are you still bagging it too? I will be waiting for you report on you test ride

I'm not bagging the boards. But I do wet the cloth on a table, like vacuum baggers all do. This is where the weight savings comes from. Wetting on a table lets you get near pre-preg cloth to resin ratios.
Bagging adds strength, but doesn't save weight.
