You have saved me a lot of frustration. Thanks again.


OK, I HAVE done this. I took some newspaper and wrapped it round a 2"
piece of pipe roughly 2' long. Next wrap that with wax paper which is
your release layer, apply the epoxied glass. It came off with no
problem, in fact, I did it twice.
I used this method to make the mast step insert for my MiniCup
sailboats.
