| After removing the AL ring and the electric tape, I setup the bench as a reference surface. All the AL was really scuffed and cleaned and the previous days glass lightly sanded with 80 grit to help the keying. It is still a bit green so it should chemically bond also. | 
|
| Then more glass work, a single layer of 6oz under the upper and inboard edges, then a metal hoop in the front edge and layers of 6oz glass to hold everything together. | 
|
| Once one or two layers over the AL components I moved the whole structure onto the plenum - this should help cure / set eveything in the right shape. | 
|
| To help set the front ring I used the ring clamp to get a circular shape on the outside and had the 'bright idea' to use a balloon to expand on the inside. |
