I managed to not get any resin on the car SO I am HAPPY........

Now its time for some of this!!!!!

I DIDN'T want to wrap the whole door so these will just be pods. I will make sure they are solid and the door is reinforced also. I will resin some washers into the fabric and bolt ALL THE WAY through the door panel and door metal and probably an oak cross piece inside the door also.

I am beat for the day but am HAPPY with the progress. I will start wraping the pods in the morning.

[Sir-Lancelot 216]

Damn it man, you worked your ass off today.

Great start.

What brand resin do you use and what is the work time with it before it jells?

[mccleery3 166]

Excellent progress for the day bro

[Dutchie. 10]

I like to hit it hard when I do. My last pods only took 8 hrs but the back of them was wood. I think I am doing good concidering I am building 4 pods at once.

I got the resin at the the auto body store, its "Evercoat" brand. It doesn't seem like theres much diff between brands as far as I can tell.

I was just wingin' it on the hardner because I was only mixing 8 oz. at a time. I was doing like 35-40 drips for 8 oz. and it started to gel after about 20 minutes. I used like 7 or 8 brushes and a ton of gloves.

[stocks 2]

[///M5 2,833]
