Nova Loman constructs a custom fiberglass hardtop for her sailboat using a DIY mold made from thin boards and plastic piping.0:08 To provide structural integrity, she integrates plastic pipes along the arch and front sections, which also serve as splash rails and non-slip foot supports.5:29 The fabrication process involves layering fiberglass mat and polyester resin, followed by extensive sanding and spackling to smooth the surface.9:49 Because the work occurs in late autumn, Loman uses a 3-kilowatt heater to maintain temperatures sufficient for the resin to cure.16:51 She attaches the finished structure to the boat deck by sanding away the existing gel coat and glassing the hardtop directly to the vessel.11:54 Due to cold weather and time constraints, the final painting and window installation are deferred until spring.16:13 The project prioritizes functional utility over cosmetic finish.10:20
