Same for the pizza trays. They're sold at 15", but you measured them at 14 7/8".
Everything about these sorts of projects is custom. Expect nothing to be exactly what it says it is, until you measure it yourself.

Fine. We established "Measure twice, order once."
I never heard back from my landlord. I finally called him, but it just rang. I guess that I will send a check in the morning and hope that he does not charge a late fee.
I had planned on going to that store, but I realized that I did not have any idea what I was doing. I know that there are all manner of instructions on here about crafting things, but I though that it would be easier to use YouTube.
I just wanted to share this guy's cheesy video:
He builds a splitter using two layers of coroplast and several layers of carbon fiber. At 9:09 he jumps on it, hits it with a sledgehammer, tips it on its side, and climbs the fins like a ladder.
I really liked this series!

It is actually vacuum-bagging carbon fiber, but I think that much of that applies to fiberglass. Of course, I do not have any idea how to do any of it!
