Sam,

I look forward to seeing your results for the 6mm ply. The tests that you published on Nicks site were also very informative.(Lots of stuff on Nicks site and I hadnt found this stuff yet).

One final avenue that may be interesting to explore is that of polyester vs epoxy.

Unfortunately, when I changed streams in engineering I sold some of my text books including a great book on composite construction by Michael C.Y. Niu. I wish I had that now!

Perhaps some strength vs cost plots would be interesting for both resins and fibers.

Regards,

Nick
