Hey, You said that there were glass SMC parts similar to this. Perhaps you know the thickness of these parts? If you build up a similar...
Scphantm, As a rule of thumb, I usually say that I want the same amount of resin, as I have glass. Since vinylester is approx. 10% heavier than...
The thickness of the materials is also important to keep in mind. If for instance the wood would have a thickness of 0.1 mm, and the carbon would...

Been there, done that. Unfortunately, you didn't seem to have a lot of time. I guess we'll see eachother again soon. Cheers
Sorry, I didn't see / forgot that it was concerning the mold. I thought it was about the hull. Sorry for that. For the mold, go with balsa....
In my opinion, I would recommend glass as well. Whether this is E-glass or S-glass, it wouldn't matter to much I assume. The material properties...
The shear modulus of a balsa 100 kg/m3 is around 110 N/mm2. PET (Airex T92) will give you a shear modulus of 21 N/mm2.
Herman, Why go with a balsa core? In my opinion I would always ago for a non-wood, closed cell core when possible. If would look for a PVC or...
Thanks for your quick reply. We tried this before but the results weren't as we hoped. I'll try again and use several different options and...

Hey guys. Haven't been here for a week. During weekdays I live in Hilversum, a place near Amsterdam in Holland. In Hilversum I have no internet...

You're close Slowmo. If your boat would always sail upright, so without any trim (transverse) it would be better to have the CB in the middle...
I do not understand you can keep talking about something so easy so long. I think it is clear: If you are sure that the local designer makes...
