hey im making a board. got the wood today. 1/8 inch baltic birch plywood.anyway, how do you think 4 plies, and fiberglass on the top and bottom would hold? im trying to make a speedboard.

@lolttyl143 i think thatd work out great and just make sure when you put the layers together that you use alot of extra glue and make the plys solid. also id reccomend both layers of fiberglass on the bottom

[lolttyl143]

@wallflipr thanks. how much do the fiberglass cloths cost, and how much does epoxy resin cost too

[wallflipr]

@lolttyl143 its not epoxy resin, its actually labeled fiberglass resin and i think like maybe 20 bucks or so and the cloth was like 10 i believe or maybe cheaper this was awhile ago
