…I made one this year…I’ll post it in the “boards” > section… ********************************************************** Thanks to all for the great links! I appreciate your input. Paul, I’ve seen your work, I am very impressed. I’m going to take Steve Pages’ advice. What steps must a person take to make a wooden fin? I want to make some for functional utilization as well as make a few to place in shadow boxes in order to decorate my office… Thanks, Magoo
What steps must a person take to make a wooden fin? … My most recent fins are 1+1/8" at the base…1/8" glass core + 1/2" ply x 2 sides…I do remove wood at the part that goes in the box, and replace it with glass & epoxy… I used 4 layers of 6oz.cloth with tinted resin at the core The plywood is 1/2" 9ply baltic birch…After foiling and fine sanding, I put 2 layers of 6 oz. on each outer side…Lay one layer of glass at a time…I brush resin on with a cheap bristle brush… lay on the glass… brush on more resin, smoothing and evening as I go…Lay on more glass…Etc…The glass is there to keep the wood protected, I’m not really looking at it for strength…After sanding again, one more layer of glass each side, sand, hot coat, final sand…Spray with Rustoleum/Krylon gloss clear…Drill for fin screw & slot pin ( I use a stainless steel scew cut off & epoxied )…
