well i've got this crazy idea, and i kinda wanna make it happen i like the look of veilside, but without the lil flair things on the side and maybe a lil vis mixed in soooo....
would it be possible to make my own kit if i started with something like autoCAD made somethin up then had say a block of wood and clay, and shaped it to what i wanted, then added say ceran (sp??) wrap w/vasaline as a release agent then laid fiberglass over it?? i think this would be awsome just to point and say i made that and u'ed have a better feeling then buying the 1500 veilside "that never fit right anyway!" so has anyone ever done this before?? and since i have all the time in the world (well minus homework and my job)  would this be possible i mean somebody has had to do it right?? so if u can help let me know thanks!

What about using aluminum foil and chicken wire for your mold... Clay would probably be nice since you can shape it easily to ur liking... Just some thoughts... |
