If you find all of this information a little overwhelming at first, you
can be sure you are not alone! Whether the project you are contemplating
is an industrial tool, a ship repair or a carbon fiber car body, the process
of getting started is much the same. First,
the best advice we can give you is to take a little time to educate yourself
before jumping into your first project. You will find a ton of free educational
resources on this site. The Learning
Center offers several highly valuable free resources to get you started.
There are several free brochures but you might find The
Fundamentals of Fiberglass and Molding
Fiberglass to be particularly helpful in getting started.
Next,
you will want to review the Books
and Videos page of our Online Catalog. Although they are not free
these resources offer a variety of valuable information. If you learn
best by watching rather than reading, you might be interested in our 5
Video Set. We have published the most comprehensive set of
videos about composite techniques available anywhere!
Additionally,
we recommend doing a small project before tackling that big project you
can’t wait to start. If you would like some guidance about those
first product selections, check out the “How
To” Guidelines in the Learning Center. With the products on
this list, you will have everything you need to complete a project. After
you get familiar with the techniques, you’ll be much more comfortable
altering the process and being adventurous with the materials!
Finally,
visit FibreTalk, our
free discussion forum where you are sure to meet other newcomers as well
as experienced professionals. There is a ton of information shared on
Fibre Talk every day. Join in and we’re sure you’ll get lots
of great advice.
Welcome to the world of composites and welcome to Fibre
Glast Developments. We want your project... every one of them... to be
a success! |
