GRP build from CNC

Post by peterhull »

Hello
I am a new member and I wondered if there is any information on building a Scamp using GRP board instead of plywood.

I like GRP as material, it's much more durable and doesn't rot.

I was thinking that if the board could be cut using CNC templates it could be stitched together very much like plywood.

Anyone got any experience or information on this.

Sounds interesting, Peter. I wonder about weight, though? I don't know much about the material.

Cheers,
Dale
