It its recommend to sand a small radius on the material you are working with(wood ,foam, carbon fiber) to help get the cloth to conform a little better....gougeon brothers (west systems,and glen l marine)...thank for the tutorial Rick❤
Hi Ronald, Thank you for introducing me to the Gougeon Brothers, their resources are amazing. I am definitely going to check them out. Learning is a lifelong process, and I'm glad to have found such a valuable source of information. Rick

Sweet cowl! Looks to be about 11 inches in diameter. What prop will you be using?]
lol, 10 1/2 inches!
It's a 10.5-inch cowling. I am planning to use a 20-10 or 22-8 propeller based on the assumption that the outer half of the prop blade provides the majority of the thrust. An example of this can be seen in the Geebee aircraft. I am curious to see how well the performance will turn out." I see you also have a balsa project underway. :)
Impregmentated? 😂
