how i made the fibre mold ...this is summary

1. Drawn 3D as shown (the golden color canopy) with CAD program
2. let the CNC machine cut the aluminium
3. apply resin+hardener+fibre glass mat and paint all in the mold
4. wait few hour.. the resin will hard
5. open mold and cut as need
6. paint (this is most hard for me)
