Brief Description:    Cut out fiberglass (34-14)
I covered the kitchen table with the paper that the rolls of fiberglass came in. Based on what I read online...rolls is the way to order the fiberglass, so it doesn't have fold lines. I ended up with just enough glass, but I think it would have been better to have some extra. The rotary cutter worked great, although the plastic parts didn't like the acetone very much...still works fine. I would have also liked a bigger cutting board (36" minimum if I were to do it again). Also don't stack all the straight strips on top of each other...they get caught up in each other and come apart so easily.
