Hello All,
I will working with some nidacore to test my skills, if any, in getting some pieces laid up with a decent roll on gel coat finish.
I am making a small helm panel out of some 1/2 inch pieces of nidacore.
Any suggestions on getting the "edges" round?
Putty, cloth wrap?
I was thinking of cutting in half a 5/8" or 3/4" round plastic conduit pipe to build up the "outside" radius.
Or a half round hollow piece of "something"
Any suggestions or maybe a tool out there.
The helm panel here was done in wood and sanded "round".
Not sure I can do than with a piece of raw nidacore.
