Fiberglass CD tutorial

Now that my plane is about done I was thinking about putting together a CD for a step by step process for filling in the tail glass and some other tips. I've done the glass on 3 RV's and will use a friends to take the step by step photos. The text is about done.

I'm guessing the cost would be about $20. If there is interest, let me know. I guess I'm one of the crazy ones that enjoys the glass work. I think the CD would take some of the smoke and mirrors out of the process. Glass work really isn't tough in the scheme of things.

Sorry for the delay

Sorry guys. As usual life got in the way. My mom's health is deteriorating and I've been dealing with that. When free time occurred I was painting the plane and putting it back together.

I will be doing some glass work with Glenn Brasch's 9 and will be taking the photos for the CD then. Hope to have it done in the next 2 months.

In the meantime, feel free to contact me direct if you have any questions. I'll be happy to help you.
 
Darwin I understand the problem, been there. Bring a stack of CD's to OSH, they will go fast. Oh yea, don't worry about Glenn's plane, come do mine :D
