I am sure there are many other threads about glassin but I found some stuff in Hope Depot and all the other threads talk about getting the stuff at boat stores
So I was looking around and found some glass cloth I dont know what weave it was or if there are certian strengths...it was pretty cheap. I didnt know what kind of resin to use so I was thinking maybe just the syringe stuff from the hardware store. After looking around the Depot though I found 1 gallon of resin for $25. I didnt know where the hardner was and found out it was a little tube in the top of the contianer. It was Bondo Brand and I dont know if this is a good strong epoxy to use. It says that it is used for fiberglassing only. I know you guys say West Systems but I dont really have acsess to any
So
Is the Fiberglass from Home Depot of a small enough weave and strong enough
and is the Bondo Epoxy strong enough to at least use for glassing but maybe to do other things. The only weird thing about it is the hardner is a tiny tube and there is a gallon of resin.
I plan on maybe using the glass to reinforce the joints on the Big Nuke
Thanks
