How to Make Fiberglass Parts with the Bare Minimum Tools (Patreon)
Content
So something a bit different this time. I brought up a few weeks back that trying to get consistent videos uploaded was tough when I had lots of orders on and so I've decided to start a Fiberglass Basics series that I can make videos for while working on those orders. Two birds one stone. I've got a few of these planned out, and this first one is on the absolute bare essentials, no fancy tools, no extra filler powders or anything fancy, just a chip brush, some fiberglass, and some resin.Let me know what you think of this format and if there are any improvements you would like to see or even suggestions for what you want me to cover in future tutorials.Timestamps:
