With the bottom of the box done<\/a>, time to cover the remaining bare foam on the front. The front is 1.75″-2″ wide so we’re talking applying glass tapes all around. To bond to the sides a loooong flox corner was needed all around the inside and outside, which required a lot of Dremel work to remove the foam and get bare glass everywhere.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The box front uses flox corners all around the inside and outside, so there was a lot of foam routing needed.<\/p><\/div>\n

It took a lot of flox, too. I think I mixed 7oz of epoxy before it was all filled. I used scrap BID and just kept cutting tapes and applying until I had two plies everywhere, and then added peel ply.<\/p>\n

The layup is complete, including peel ply. There were a few small air bubbles against the flox, but not many.<\/p><\/div>\n

That completed the main work on the box. At this point all the wiring for fans, heaters, and sensors can be added.<\/p>\n

The lid also needs to be fabricated, though. This consists of two blocks of foam, which were cut and sanded so one fits into the opening and the other makes a flange that matches the perimeter. After a lot of sanding, these were joined together with micro and weighed into place.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The box lid uses two pieces of foam, one for the inset and one for the flange.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u00a0Once the micro has cured, the lid will get two layups, one for the outside and one for the inside. Then we’re finally done with all the fiberglass work.<\/p>\n
