Subject: FG citations?

I can no longer avoid making the various fiberglass ducts & whatnot for
my cooling systems.  Can anyone give me some useful citations on how to
work with fiberglass?  I don't have the first clue where to begin, so a
beginners book with enough meat to get me through the (hopefully simple)
task of building a few KN ducts would be great.

On a side note -- I need to make a custom oil pan.  Couldn't I make it
out of fiberglass too?  The oil isn't all that hot, and it's not a
pressurized system...  Just trying to kill 2 birds with one stone...

There are some books on the subject sold by Aircraft Spruce.
I'll check over my collection when I get home to day and
see if I like one better than another.
Go to any boat or yacht shop. They have most of the supplies.
Get youself a cheap kit and jump in.

Mark,
Try to find a builder near you who is building a composite AC.  Just
building the airframe gives one the expertise to tackle almost any composite
project.  How's the Pport going.
