btw i realized how crappy the edges looked so went back and re did them
 
ok now idk what to do with drilling for bulkheads do I fiberglass the drill or do I drill the through the bare wood then fiberglass in the hole
 
all right gentlemen just got back from the hardware store with masks resin and cloth time to go to work on fiberglass
 
welll started with fiberglass kind of sucks butt got all corners with two layers. and most of the rest covered with one ran out of mat for the night so will proceed tomorrow
 
With the way you used so much lumber on the stand, I never would have thought youd use particle board- how thick are the sheets? Also, in my opinion- even with all those uprights I would still put corner braces or angled supports around it-
