Your buiding a Boat hurdy!!?????? or maybe a camper van extension? , is there such thing as the Sea in Yorkshire?
-
The bugs got you bad :grin:
I hated working with fibre glass, before the advent of carbon fibre nearly all our race car panels were RGF. Stuff used to make me itch like crazy.
-

Yes,
It's a similar story here. I used to get high on this stuff years ago when I built and repaired canoes. Ahhh, the memories come flooding back * in swirly patterns and semolina pilchards!!!*

Your building a body kit and cossie wing for your MKV?
Nick
-
you are, looks like a roof rack, there are better ways to fix it to the roof!! may i suggest some screws?? either that youve been watching Richard hammond too much on top gear building a amphibious camper Van. I wonder if the Edition 30 would float???. Good luck Captain Hurdy :wink:
-
Ermm...i think it looks like hes gonna fibre glass the sub some where into the boot? :huh:
-
Oooh. Very nice Hurdy.
Is it going to be silver? Or mattalic black? :evil:

Still fluid on the cover/design for the front at the moment. Just finished the first layer of FG and i'm just starting to float back down from the ceiling :laugh:

Looks interesting. Always wanted to give that a try. I reckon Redrobing will be doing the saem too. Except his 14 year old daughter will probably talk him out of it :grin:
-
You still havent said what it is :smiley:
-
Its a fregging Sub holder.You forget.
Hurdy has a aftermarket sound system and that features a sub.
So your assumption is correct Manu...
:lipsrsealed:
-
Thats what i thought it was, had the same in my previous car and i just wanted to know if i was correct or incorrect :nerd:
-
lol.
DOnt worry. I also assumed and was worried I would probably be wrong.
-
If you dont try it doest hurt eh!...I bet hurdy is as high as a kite :P
-
Ha ha.
:grin: :grin: :grin:
-
Yes, you are both right :cool:
I'm building a sub box :smiley:
Just run out of fibre glass resin and so will have to wait till tomorrow to top up. Fancied doing this for a while as the sub in it's existing form (up till today :grin:) weighs in at 14.7kg including the box etc and so I'm hoping the FG one will weigh at least 3 or 4 kg less and free up more useable space in the boot.

Which will save how many seconds off your o-60 speed? :lipsrsealed:

Neat work so far. You've gone up quite far, are you going to have the sub floating from the side or build up from the floor to?
-
You like that idea then Hurdy? :wink: Make two while your at it :laugh:

The sub only requires 15 litres of air in the box and so I could do either. Space-wise I think that it will definitely be a bonus.
Anyone any ideas on the kind of finish I ought to go for?
Im thinking proper stealth at the moment, but a little bit of silver carbon fibre might sneak in :undecided:
