I've just cut out the monowheel centre console bulkhead shape from 3mm ply.
[Incidentally I wish I'd left the flap lever cutout intact until
later - the flange layup would be much easier with that present.]
{And another thing - I wanted to print a spare copy of the template
so as to leave my build manual intact, but I can't find that page
(11-7) in any of the PDF copies. Eventually I scanned it and printed
a sacrificial copy from that - but does anyone know where the
template might be found in the PDF manuals?}
Anyway (before this gets too much like a Ronnie Corbet big chair
joke), what I really wanted to ask is about the installation of the
bulkhead, which acts as a "mudguard". I am looking at the
installation instructions and I can't see any reference to coating
the ply with resin, nor putting a layer of BID on the "outside" of it
(as is done with the inboard thigh support ribs which also face the
outside world).
Anyone see any reason why I shouldn't put a layer of BID on the
"weather" side of that bulkhead? I certainly don't want to leave a
raw piece of ply open to everything the wheel will throw up.
regards
Rowland
