[F39_Parts_Floats] 46. Layout of the outer layer of fiberglass, peelply and mesh

After much work preparing the embeds, reinforcements and sanding the foam, it was time to lay the outer layer. The difficulty of laying out the fabric is that it folds, slips and bunches on the staples while turning float. And when more than three layers are laid out, it becomes more and more difficult to smooth it out. The peelply and mesh do not shrink and fit the shape of the float very well, but this cannot be done with wide sheets, but half the width of the roll is just perfect. A spiral tube is laid on the mesh. Along the keel it is twisted in twins and has branches with a pitch of 60 cm in each direction. Thanks Fram.nl for your videos, I made by analogy. The entire supply spiral tube is covered with strips of mesh and the whole thing is stitched with thread to reduce the number of staples. A locking distance of 40 centimeters is enough to prevent the resin from immediately going into the vacuum line, which is located at the highest point and goes around the cutouts for the hatches. To eliminate force-majeure during infusion, I divided the entire length of the float into three independent segments and made a two breaks in the spiral tube along the keel. This allowed significantly more time for infusion. Reduced resin waste and relieved nervousness during the infusion process.
