Building a foam core monster door 164 x 50
here is my plan .5" divinycell h80 tip to tail, with .75" for a 120cm span in the middle between foot pads.
3 layers of 6 oz glass on the bottom
3-4 layers 6 oz glass on the top with carbon under the foot pads oriented 0,90 30,60 and 0,90 60,40 Vacuum bagged using SB112 resin
I haven't gone through the stiffness calcs on this yet, and haven't worked with glass enough to have real confidence in my "that there should be about right" assessment that I have done so far.
However am no stranger to vacuum bagging and composites work from many carbon projects done on cars.
someone wanna let me know if I'm way off base here and need to make this stiffer?
I know I can always add additional plys if it's not stiff enough but I'd prefer the chemical bond strength obtained by a single cure, rather than the surface bond resulting from multiple cures
Ultimately I wanna make a big LIGHT board for days when I can barely get my 17m contra in the air.
