Putting in the evap plate & fiberglass panels. Panels are epoxied
together at each corner with a pre-molded fillet. The front f'glass
panel has core-mat & carbon fiber; the bottomg panel is 4 layers of 8oz
f'glass + 3 layers of 5oz carbon fiber. (pic orientat'n: up = stb'd,
left = fwd)


The carbon fiber was added after both my wife & I decided that the
bottom panel was too weak & flexy to take having stuff piled on it,
dropped on it, etc etc... picture accidentally dropping a gallon tub of
ice cream, and having to tear out the whole freezer to replace the
bottom vacuum insulation panel... but it was overkill. 1 layer CF on
top, 2 layers on the bottom, and you could drive a small car over the thing!
