Making Fiberglass Fenders with 3D Printed Molds! Sky-gea Build: Part 29

Back to the Stagea after a quick break working on the Mx5, in this video we fix the front fender by 3D printing a single use mould from a scan from the other side, and then recreating a perfectly symmetrical fender out of fiberglass.


Enjoy the video.
