Starting to Construct the Nose

Here is (left to right) Tyler, Brett and Guy starting to cut the RenShape that was donated from Huntsman to create our nose buck.


The first cut we made in the RenShape. The Black & Decker was quickly replaced with a snap-your-wrist-500hp-worm drive-skill saw which worked much better!




Our concoction of "glue" which is a mixture of body filler (aka. Bondo) and styrene (aka. fiberglass resin). The reason we used this mixture is to obtain a glue that is thin enough to be used as a glue and it also sands very similar to the RenShape.




The final bond for the nose!
