I would agree with everything you said but I am not the last word.

: on this sandwich construction: wood as the core and fiberglass as the outer
: layers. does the distance of the fiberglass layers play a part in
: strength? I would think that if the glass is farther apart(the wood layer
: is thicker)it would be stronger. is this assumption correct? For instance:
: if a stronger wood is used then a thinner strip of this wood can be used.
: But the glass layers will be closer together. will this have to be
: considered in over all strength of the construction? thanks
