Hello again,

Jake, in response to what you said, I did get pictures from multiple angles and scaled them all up and drew the hull design from a side and top view. It looks about the same with some minor deficiencies.

Matt, The model will only be used as a display and will not be R/C or anything like that, and is about a 7:1 scale (about 30" long)

Based on what you all said, making a female mold is a bad idea unless I plan on making multiple copies, which I dont....Obviously, the infusion process is not a secret, but i doubt il be using that process, so I guess i'm down to what Jake said with strip planking with balsa wood, what Matt said with using basswood, what Keith said with using blue insulation foam and sanding it down, or using the program that Erez used.

I am leaning a bit towards the blue insulation foam idea, but what is meant by ?? I understand how to glue the foam together and sand it down, but what is involved with vacuum bagging a layer of glass,....why not just use gelcoat or fiberglass cloth or carbon?

Also, Erez, what program did you use to create your model? I might be interested in that so i can be able to get all the details correct for the hull shape

thanks again for all the imput, i'll be sure to post pictures when this is finally completed
