It’s a bit heavy unfortunately, but it’s pretty easy to deal with (no glue or fasteners, just weld it on) and relatively inexpensive ($28 for a 4x8’ sheet at the moment). For this back section the 4x8 sheet is pretty close to the right size so I will trim the edges after it’s welded on, rather than cutting it to size before hand.</p>http://iandraz.com/post/389415090http://iandraz.com/post/389415090Sun, 14 Feb 2010 11:53:00 -0800fuso<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kxqy12ZrII1qzp3y3o1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The American <a href="http://bmworacleracing.com/">BMW Oracle</a> team just won the first race of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America's_Cup">America’s Cup</a>, against the Swiss team <a href="http://www.alinghi.com/">Alinghi</a>.
