Don't apologize, quite the opposite.
If someone does not understand fiberglass terminology, it shows that he
doesn't have sufficient experience with the material to offer advice.
Now, about the changes, Bruce Roberts may have very good reasons not to
change his specs.
I hope you are not overlooking something like weight distribution,
insulation, stiffness etc. etc.


Why not apologize, I think it is a good idea to make the posts
readable by everyone. Besides I did not offer any advice. When someone
wants to know about new (to them) technology they are not necessarily
supposed to go to one of 9 pay sites and pay for it...
Scotty, who started SmallBoats.com because of this attitude exactly...
in fact it was one of 9 sites that drove me to the internet cause I
did not think everyone should have to bow to a idol to learn to build
a simple S+T box...

Sorry about that. I'm guilty..

I was responding to this post as if I were answering a 'one on one' email
and used the terminalogy that Adam had used it the his post.

BTW.. Adam later post gave a very good reference on the various types of
glass materials that are available. I was pleased to not that they specify
that the mat, roving and stitch mat (what I refered to as fab-mat) is
intended for polyester resins. Perhaps that will aid others who aren't
aware
of the incompatability of some forms of glass products with epoxy.
