 I thought you were using plywood?  Recall my
 fins vibrated into shreds due to large size.  Are you
 reinforcing plywood with carbon fiber or are the fins
 fiberglass?  How many layers and are you doing anything
 special to reduce vibration?

  Doing
  a non-bagged (probably just
 weighted)  fin, CF, tip to
  tip job on my 5.5" Black Brant.. and
 need some
  supplies. I'm using West Systems and a
 course weave CF
  (not for looks.. it's just what I
 have).  
  
  Also.. I would love to hear discussion
 on preferences of the
  various types of peel ply.  The nylon
 kind,
  plastic/rayon/paper kinds, or the kind
 the red lines in
  it..
   
  Do
  you use bleeder cloth (for catching
 excess epoxy)?
