Damn nice, Damn nice!
I come from the automotive aftermarket and know many a fabricator and that my friend is right up there.
For all non professionals, now you see why some of these things actually do cost a lot of money of you can't build it yourself. great_white has 60plus hours into it and even if you half the time for someone who does something like that regularly, you are talking some bucks!
Again, Damn Nice!

Thanks Bob.
If I were to replicate it now, it would probably only take about 5 hours of work.
this one would be "sacrificed" for a "plug" and I'd make a mold off it.
Then, about an hour to lay up in the mold and a couple hours to clean it up.
Still, there's no way you could sell it for less than about 200 bucks a pop to make even a marginal profit. And that would be without the inverter, the 5v power supply and definitely not with the screen.
Add that stuff in and you're talking somewhere around 450-500 bucks to just break even....

That is so cool...Did you just put the fiberglass over the cardboard? Was there a frame under the cardboard?

impressive and great looking job - when I saw the cardboard I knew you were making the template for something better - which turned out very nice

Just a wee update.
Decided I would like a CB in the truck and did a little more cutting, fitting and 'glassing:
Coming along nicely.
