Comparing the Cloth Supply for a Custom Layout
I planned the storage assembly and simulated the roof dimensions on the patio.
I built the timber drawer frame and base, then cut the rubber lining with scissors.
I fitted the lining with adhesive, screws and washers before attaching the slides to the drawer and cabinet.

My Takeaway from This Job
The cloth is reinforcement stock that can be laid out and cut before fabrication. My six-ounce purchase, the smaller Bondo sheet and the CASIFAVI sheet differ in supplied area and shape, which affects the starting layout of the pieces.

Purchase reference
Six-ounce cloth
Woven fiberglass cloth is laid out as reinforcement before resin is mixed. Arrange the required pieces dry and allow enough room to handle the fabric without pulling the weave out of shape. A curved repair may need more than one piece to follow the surface neatly. Keep the cut cloth clean and organized in the order it will be applied. Cloth and random-fiber mat have different structures, so the reinforcement choice belongs with the resin and repair layout rather than being selected only by sheet size.
This woven fiberglass cloth is a reinforcement sheet for resin-based repairs. The packaged sheet provides eight square feet of material that can be cut to shape.
