: Now that I am well into glassing my Great Auk, I have a bunch of leftover

I've got all mine shoved into a white plastic kitchen garbage bag. I'm always reaching into that for little pieces to cover something. Just glassed two " Box-Hockey " paddles for the grandkids last night. All scraps but you'd never know it.

I cut off all the bad stuff and leave only the usable pieces and just toss it in the bag. Got a bunch from a friend that builds canoes also. He uses 6oz. and I have 3.25 and 1.5oz scraps.
