I used 2 layers of carbon and 1 layer of the regular KR glass on the inside. There was also a 2 or 3 inch carbon strip run along the edges and a big X through the middle of the top and bottom halves. I didn't mold in the joggle because I'm using apiano hing on both sides. Hope this helps. Joe Horton Coopersburg, Pa. [email protected]
