Hi all,

I'd like to make a custom shape ice cooler to really fit well in the baggage area. I was thinking I'd use 1" expanded styrofoam insulation with fiberglass on the inside/outside. Only catch is that I've never had to make a thin yet watertight glass layup before.

I'd like to keep the glass thin---maybe 2-3 layers to keep weight down---what's the best way to do this and end up with a water tight final product?

Thanks!
David
