Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Foam form



Dan,

Thank you for replying back to me. The material found from a fiberglass shop was some 26 dollars a sheet! Construction grade foam is more to my budget and the sheetrock mud I have used for some unusual applications already. I will make use of your suggestions! Again ...thank you.

David

David,

For the plug to make the fiberglass parts for "Persistence," I used standard construction grade sheet Styrofoam but coated it with Plaster of Paris and then dry wall spackling compound, also used in house construction, to achieve the final shape. That was then waxed for a good mold release. That all formed a protective barrier between the Styrofoam and fiberglass.

The following is dirrected at Alec Smith or anyone who has inquired as to the tail section construction of his flying sub photos found on the picture exchange. Of what material was the original form created from as Styrofoam dissolves with the application of fiber glass resin? POLYISOCYANATE? The end product really is impressive! I would love someday to have these skills.
