The plastic is a lie. There is no plastic, there is only fiberglass!

Nah.. Gonna make a model in wood, then make a mold with fiberglass, and then I'm gonna make the actual case from the mold also in fiberglass. Pure handwork, painfully timeconsuming :D

EDIT: Oh, I'm making a two part mold. One on top and one on the bottom. Should work.

Cool, that will be a unique case!

What kind of insulation layer/chemical do you use to avoid the fiberglass layers (probably hardened with epoxy) from sticking to the wood model?

Greets,

I'm not using epoxy, as it is more expensive (at least around here) than polyester. So I'm using fiberglass armed polyester as building material.

For keeping the mold free from the case itself I use a "release" fluid that is made for it (almost like clear coat) but mostly I just clearcoat with automotive paint and wax it with vaseline inside the mold and go from there :)
