Finished Bottom Plug Photo by David Johnson created 4/27/2003 submitted 4/28/2003 08:46:44 AM This shows the bottom plug immediately before the mold was made from it. The bottom plug was made by stacking foam in the same manner as the top plug. It was done in two halves as the CNC machine was not large enough to machine the entire vehicle at once. After both halves were machined they were joined together using epoxy and bolts. Following that the foam was sanded, primed, wet sanded, painted with black Imron, and then waxed.
