you showing up my shortcutting techniques again nev. Haha, like the video link in that very usefull for people , i did have a think about using the plug to make a permanent moulding in the first place but they do look nice when pulled form a mould but you need a lot more materials to make a nice thick sturdy mould in the first place then sand it out till its like a babys bottom an polish it up a gooden. so you can pull you product

them kits look ok dont they bit pricey tho, it was about £15 to £20 for the resin hardener fiberglass and carbon sheeting all as seperates
