Best way / method when glassing the whole hull

[CrkdLtr]

After a 2 month sabbatical from the TV I'm back on track and ready to finish it. This time around I bought wide enough fiberglass cloth to wrap the the outside and the inside of the tumblehome panel at the widest point.

Before I start mixing up the epox and brushing it on I wanted to find out what would be the best way to attack this task?
I have the boat upside down and I have the cloth laid out and trimmed at the front and rear so that there will be no overlap. Should I glass the bottom and first panel and let it set then flip it over and finish the tumblehome panel?

I appreciate any suggestions.

I'm not 100% clear: you have enough cloth width to cover all hull panels (exterior or interior) at once?

If I understand you right,you can do the whole outer hull by taping the glass to the inside tightly and do the tumble home panels at the same time.You want to be able to epoxy the whole exterior hull at once Is this what your asking

I do the whole outside at one time , the epoxy will make the glass stick to the wood , no matter what the angle if you are careful. YES , You do have to go back and check it as it cures but it works for me.

The less excess glass you have hanging down the better it works. Gravity , You know.

I have my boats up off the workbench with the aid of a couple of boxes that Bananas come in. Depending on where they are placed ( Under the inside of the boat and out of the way ) determines the height of the boat from the workbench when glassing it.

Everyone has there own way of doing it , what works for me might not for you , all I know is what works for me. If the tumblehome panel is at a bad angle then let it go and do it later , it will cause more work but would be on the safe side. That you need to decide on what to do when you get there.

you'll either have to do the whole thing at once or save the tumbehomes for later with seperate pieces of glass. Once you get epoxy on the glass that is hanging it will cure hard as a rock and be unuseable.

Sorry for the misunderstanding...

What I was trying to explain was the desire to use one sheet of fiberglass cloth that would start from the bottom and come all the way up and wrap over the tumblehome panels.

Based on some of the replies I decided to take the given advice and just wrap from the bottom up to the beginning of the tumblehome with one piece. Once that cures I'll flip it over, trim the excess and start another sheet of glass to overlap where I trimmed and then continue over the tumblehome to the inside.

I was trying to ask my initial question in between phone calls at work and I guess I didn't explain it clear enough.
