So I’m off to the Port Townsend Wooden Boat Show again. The list of topics is mostly traditional stuff. I see fellow designer Richard Woods will be presenting.
I should have offered my program on plywood/composite fusion that I presented at Seattle Central Community College School of Boatbuilding. I thought it was at the website but I see not. I will post it in next post.
I did print up a splashy T shirt for the show. Will be on a black shirt.
I am new to your work, this sond interesting as i want to build with wood and fiberglass the program on plywood/composite fusion is abiut that?
it depends on what loads you are designing for. glass has a very different stretch to failure than plywood so would not support each other against global loads. Glass helps in shear loads or to protect the plywood.
