Chatting to my friend and the conversation came round to my Maestro. I said best parts and panels are hard to come by, so a suggestion was made to remake samll parts in glass fibre.
He took a look at my filler pocket and said it was easy to make as it was basically four sides like a lipped box welded to the body. So in less time it took to make a cuppa, he had made a rough paper/cardboard maquete and said a few adjustments and this could be a good mould to make a fibre glass, or someother material part.
He also suggested cutting it out of the panel, filling the pocket with silicon rubber to make a mould once again for glassfibre or some other material.
This got me to athinking, who can tell me what spec's, saftey wise does the filler pocket need to adhere to?
I don't know how much it'll cost me time and material wise, but I think I might just give it a go. Anybody tried this one before???
Cheers
