Thanks Terry, Heat hasn't been an issue so far but I will put a frame around the molds so they can sit on the floor and stay square when I lay up the body panels. I have put strengtheners the length of the fin and through the length of the fender so that should keep that stiff I'll put some photos up and you guys can tell me if I'm on the right track.
More interested to know how thick the mold needs to be, I only have 225g shopped strand and 12 layers thick at this point, How much more do I need to go???
We go by ounce (e.g. 2 ounce mat), so 225g would seem to be some pretty heavy stuff, and at 12 layers, I would think you've got a pretty rigid mold. Guessing your somewhere in the 10-12mm range on thickness, which would be pretty rigid, especially with the proper bracing/reinforcement.
