More carbon added since this, several areas will get veneer.
glass, s glass glass , bottom similar.

for you imax, it's the natural side yard in a aspen grove, the area behind the fence is horse pasture, grass gone this time of year. The bird house has aNew Mexico license plate for the roof.

Interesting reinforcement.
Brown resin ?
Couldnt you have used an old Mexican number plate ?

The additive is brown, since it gets covered matters not .i read up on carbon vs glass vs Kevlar , carbon takes a lot of resin, and not as strong as s glass. Probably find some tests that says otherwise.
Primary,
1. strength
2. remain as light as possible
3. continue grass , as Better Homes and Gardens are cruising the state.

All laminates applied. Sand sand then paint.
delays due to poor health, hope to finish in a month or so.
