Does anyone know of a good book on how to do the fiberglass work that we
typically do on RV's? Im tired of guessing at every step and bugging
everybody on this list.

Sam James has a VHS tape on basic fiberglassing, as used in RV's. Andy Gold
at Builder's Books sells it.

There's two types of fiber glassing, vinyl ester and epoxy. If you have
vinyl ester parts, let me know and we'll hook you up with a friendly Glasair
builder in your area, if it's epoxy work then you'll have to troll over to
the Lancair list.

You might try contacting Sam James, he has an excellent video for beginners. I think it is called Composites 101!!!!! If you have specific question, your welcome to call or email me. I work with composites every day.

I have a video, I think it is called fiberglass 101. Good video, no
wait, the information on the video is good... The acting leaves much to
be desired.

I think it runs around $20, or I could part with mine if I can find
it... Let me know, -Mike

Sam's video is not likely to win an Emmy, but he does know his stuff and it
is directly related to RVs.

On the book side, I'd recommend Zeke Smith's Understanding Composites for
knowledge about the materials and Burt Rutan's Moldless Composite Aircraft
Construction as a lab manual to practice your skills.

All are listed on this page
