[RCSE] formica laminates as wing skin

1999-12-02 Thread Scobie Puchtler or Sarah Felstiner

Even the thinnest formica laminates will be very heavy compared with other
methods.
The countertop laminates are engineered for toughness in terms of scratch
resistance, surface hardness, etc. and are specifically NOT engineered for
stress and bending loads, or particularly for tension or compression loads.
In a word, they are BRITTLE.

No law against trying, I suppose.
