I also really dislike working with light woven cloth. I'd much rather work with 12 ounce biax than 6 ounce woven.

StickyStuff, yes, get us those photos when possible!!

I'm picking up his slack

I think somebody has built one or two of these before
Just started a few days ago and it looks like a boat already

There are three things I dislike the most in building. Nidacore, 6 oz. woven, and the worst was two layers of 17 oz with matt. It took 13 gal of resin on the bottom of the XDF 2o. Horrible time getting the resin to soak in the matt when laminating. the first time was the first and last I will ever build another xf 20 with matt in general.Woven roven with polyester resin was easier that than that.
The biggest challenge on this one was the lack of space to get around in. I sure miss my other shop/ garage I had before I retired.12 X 36.

So far, from time I built platform to date it has been 10 days and 35 hours build time.Some good, some bad. The best part, in this heat I have not lost one ounce of resin to heated kick off. ( I had my fingers crossed on this one.)

We now stock a new 1708 that absorbs resin more easily.
