West System publishes a useful booklet "002-150 Vacuum Bagging Techniques". I
recommend their more general how-to booklets, too.

I got a surplus vacuum pump last fall, and a fiberglass guy just moved in
down the street. I have an out of production kayak that I love. Its narrow
profile is perfect for the local waters. It is also overly heavy duty for
the local sandy conditions, and the cockpit doesn't fit my big frame.

I want to make a female mold from the bottom, and a new one for the top,
with integral knee braces. I've done this, but I'm pretty clueless about how
to vacuum bag.
