I may change the angle of the ring......just trying to get an idea of how it will be.

This side is next. A bit tighter, but still plenty of room.

6 layers of 2oz mat done. If the weather holds when this is cured I will pull the enclosure and make the top and front in the garage. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
