Fibreglassing

This part has been a very sticky job. The glass fibres in the resin stick to everything.

Sheets of it are hanging over the tractor platform and get stuck on over the sculpture using resin.









Grant found that putting a fibreglass layer on towards the end stopped the sculpture from cracking with the expansion and contraction in changing weather.

Mark's knee has finally poked through his pants altogether. They simply cracked open. Grant offered to fibreglass it over again.












The weather has been so cold that the resin wouldn't set, so the boys got on with another job this afternoon. Mark will thank me for including this photo!
