Well, started fibreglassing today and .....oh no.... I ran out of resin! B##ger!
I have plenty of catylist, lots of chopped strand mat, (medium), and the shop calculated the resin based on the 18 square metres I had to cover. They even sold me what they said was too much, because theres nothing worse than running out before your finished!

I bought a 10 litre drum of polyester resin, but it looks like Ive got about maybe 2 and a half to 3 square metres left to cover.

I can only conclude that either we calculated wrong or I didnt use enough thinners to make it go further.

The only other conclusion is that the plywood sucked up more than anticipated.

Oh well, now I have to wait another couple of paydays to go buy more. I can see why others call this the Infinity project.

Lord help me!
