I layed up another mat and 1 layer of 1708 on it and let it set up over night .
I Popped it off the mold and it was relatively easy
this is where it got tricky I set the circular saw to just under 3/4" and made some rips. I then got in with the flat bar and chiseled away without damaging any gelcoat. once I got a small area of gelcoat opened it went easy, One plastic wedge under and it popped right up
I cleaned it up with the air nozzle then took it outside for a wash and cleaning. I then took my air trimmer and cut all the excess off. I dropped it in the front part of the console and it fits pretty good. I little more trimming and I will be glassing it into place.
I got the template out for the forward bulkhead and cut it out of the of the 1/2" panel I layed up and it fits pretty tight. might have to do a little trimming to get it back a little bit.
