Gunkie, do you buy the stringers? Surely you don't lay them up? And I assume the white strips between the black ones are also CF? Hope you have HEPA everything for sanding that shizz!

Hello Reilly,
That's a stringerless 2 pound EPS foam blank (shape) with carbon fiber strips epoxied down. I will cap that with a layer of 4 ounce S-2 fiberglass; so no sanding of the carbon fiber. And I have Pretty heavy-duty respirator masks that not only filter all dust, but take away all odors and dangerous fumes. I also have really great goggles and great ear muffs for when I'm using power tools. And I now wear a helmet when I climb, even on top roping outdoors.
Getting older, getting scared.

Built this for one of my kids over the weekend with his help.
This ones a 10´3" creek crawler so challenging when I´m in it.
Mine´s a bigger 12´7" model
Heat-bent electrical conduit frame and vinyl skin, around 26lbs and maybe 20hrs build time.

Re-submerged in building of a different sort on Amazon's cloud standing up a large-scale, high-performance infrastructure for a client (makes for lousy pictures unfortunately) and not able to learn more woodworking at the moment. So I'm living vicariously through you guys, please get busy posting stuff up here...

Yes! Jim T! Mind if I ask how much one of those cost you? (to build)

Interesting...
EC3?
Highly-available, cross-datacenter clustering of postgres (relational database - moving to aurora), mongo (document-oriented database - moving to elasticache), AWS Lambdas & EC2 instances (microservices), kafka (message queues), apache / nodejs (frontend webservers and APIs), ELK logging, and extensive classic and application load balancing.
It's definitely building and architecture and most of the time I wish I had a hammer to beat on it all with.

Not at all! For the longer one €163.94 or in your money $178.86. With the Euro sales tax removed (I can claim it back and it wouldn´t apply in the USA anyway) then €137.76 ($150.30).
The skin is the biggest variable in cost as there´s all sorts of grades of material, these are mid-weight (ca 14oz) vinyl and was an offcut, you need about 8 sq yds.
If your interested I´ll try to knock up a pdf of how it´s built, I took some photos as I was going.
