Machining Fibreglass ?
How do you cut/drill fibreglass bodywork without cracking it or chipping the gel coat? Ive never used firbreglass before and wondered how to cut it? thanks

Masking tape off the area your working on helps. Then just drill it normally, then dremel it open to the correct size. Dremel flies through fibreglass. I'd avoid using anything with big teeth, like a hole saw etc.
