: Very nice. I am thinking of making a GP with a foam core and carbon
: sleeve. Did you vacuum bag this? Any tips on your process? I am
: thinking of carving the foam core then wrapping that with a few
: layers of 6oz s Glass than sanding smooth and covering with one
: layer of the carbon sleeve. Any suggestions. Thanks Joe
