Braket build

[martin]

Hi strick i wish i could as i already layed the glass on.. It only did this when the matt was kicking.. I had already layer some 1708 tabing so i think that it was from the 1708 tabing and nothing else keeping the mat to the mold as the tabbing started to cure or shrink. It pulled on the mat. So i just put wedged sticks in the mold to hold the glass to the side and layed more glass in..we will see after we are done..
Strick how many layers are over your braces..did you put .as many layers as your sides .. Or less.. And also did the motor mount go in after the 3/8 thickness was attained on the outside.. How many layers on top of the foam/plywood. Motor mount
I will be laminating 25lbs foam core with reinforced glass kinda like coosa board but nida core, foamboard..
It is 1/2 inch so i will laminate three pieces to bring it over 1.50".. Probably vacuum bag it to back..or do you think that vacuum might pull it off the mold

Okay CHECKED bracket and saw the glass is pulling from mold...got 4more layers to go .. I guess it was the heat and release wax ..bizarre

I dont know anything about vacuum bagging as I have never done it so am not qualified to answer your question on that. Transom core goes in after the tub is layed up. There are 3 layers of 1808 over the transom core. What are you referring to as "layers over braces"?
