Look at Frame C on the sheet that shows the cutout dimensions for the frames. It is 12" from the centerline.

Thanks for the help!

Big hunka glass. Is that db1700?

Its 12 oz biaxial.

Its 12 oz biaxial.

12 oz is much easier to work with, but still lotsa glass

Wetting out the Biaxial as l is a ton of work. Only got one side done. I guess I'll have to sand the overlap. I dont see how anyone could do wet on wet for all the tape joints and the fabric.

Looking good. About the best you could do for all that work is wet on green. (Lay glass on cured, but but before primary bonding window closes. That would mean every day. I glassed the rooftop Monday and laid fairing compound Wednesday, so that is wet on green. I gave it am xtra day cuz I had to walk on it.

If you were gonna try to do it all in a single day you have to roll your way back. Or with 12 oz; you would walk your way back out to do it in a single go.

Possible, but pretty hard. The overlap would require extra effort because it won't wet down through both layers.

The only way to do wet on green is lay tapes on day and glass within the window both sides. Honestly, not worth the efforts.

I sort of had to glass the entire roof in one day. It is 8 by 12, so perfect for a middle overlap where I wanted some more strength. I rolled the last glass back toward me because it was db1700 which wants epoxy under to wet.

It’s a lot of work. If I had to do it again, I wouldn’t have done it that way. Do what he says!

Working from home and taking care of kids while this virus is circulating prevented me from wet on green. Not too much sanding. I'm still going to sand again before I put the stringers and frames in. Guess alot more sanding is in my future.
