Seriously GPW, interesting idea... particularly in light of the above article about the fenders made during WW2. I wonder how durable those ended up being? I have some foam scraps out in the garage and a fair amount of newsprint on hand. I might see about a ...TEST!!!

How much is canvass?
A six quart kit of epoxy costs $100. You need at least two gallons of TB2 for PMF. I think that’s probably $60.IrrationalExhuberous wrote:tony.latham wrote:\The fiberglass I used on my walls was $3.50/yard. It’s cheap.

A tiny bit cheaper but not by much. I haven't done any project with it yet but I assumed the bigger cost savings came from not needing the resin and getting to use cheaper glue and paint?
Hasn't it been only in the last 10-15 years or so...
