Are you gonna have three separate internal tanks/compartments?

Don’t do laces, do a track.

The bog mix is really just a fillet that is then has a layer of carbon over it to give the join the strength it needs. Plexus would be expensive overkill. Also Plexus begins to break down over 60 degrees and a clear carbon or black hull can potentially reach that temperature.

wouldnt it be better to use plexus and not a filler mixture?

The glue is a mix of FGI 180 series epoxy, plus Q Cells and Epicraft glue powder.

So far I haven’t had to do more than a light sand, as I am taking a lot of care with the filets. I also think that it is better to focus on glueing in one at a time, and then come back and tag all of them at once.

Why not gluing and tabbing in the same step? Avoids sanding in between.
