While I did not learn it directly from Ted, he does get credit for the grunge cup idea.

The great idea Ted introduced in his stripper canoe book of the eighties was to squeegee off excess resin on the whole boat after glass wet-out. This keeps the glass from floating on resin, gives a uniform coating and reduces weight.

The grunge cup was a good idea on how to get rid of the excess resin.
