guys,

i always see threads and pics of people making custom enclosures, panels, etc out of fiberglass and i think its the coolest thing, but im totally clueless on this topic.

1) where do you get the fiberglass and how much is it?

2) how do you "mold/form" it?...and how do you cut it? ive seen some stuff that some of you guys have done, and it looks pretty professional.

3) doesnt it have a rough texture? i notice people paint it, and it looks smooth, how do you do that?

what else should i know?

i dont have any plans right now to fab anything up, but possibly in the future. i just wanna know for general knowledge, because, as far as im concerned, there really is nothing cooler than custom stuff like that, that no one else has :)
 












thanks, lee. im gonna bookmark it now and check it out tomorrow when i have absolutely nothing to do.
