Fiberglass cloth is among the fabrication materials I bought for the van. The workshop photographs show my wider process of measuring and assembling custom parts, with enough open space to lay materials out before cutting.

Where it fits my build
The van build used several working spaces, including the patio for the storage-bin drawer and an outdoor setup for the roof equipment. I measured and assembled the drawer frame on the patio before fitting the lining and slides.
During the earlier cargo-floor cleanup, I wrote about loading the tools back into the van and driving out to work. Moving and organizing the equipment was part of the practical routine around the fabrication tasks.

My build notes
The workshop arrangements changed with the job. The diary photos show both a timber assembly area and a portable saw setup, providing context for the work-holding and storage equipment in my purchases.
The kit had to move between storage, transport and the place where I was working.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
Bondo provides a smaller packaged cloth sheet, while the CASIFAVI alternative is another six-ounce woven cloth in a different width and length.

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.
