Re-engineering ?
All you need to do is compare easily available data on each material, the biggest savings will be weight, very large difference between E or S glass and carbon. And hey what makes everyone think the fiberglass they are using is identical, like it all comes from the same place from the same manufaturer and same run of yarn.
As for Kevlar, correct it is difficult to work with, typically what is done when using it is to use a carbon tape over the edges, this provides the workability to finish the edges.
Weaves on any material depend on useage.

Hello,
I am new to the forum and considering a Cozy IV.
Just thought I would make you all aware of our company, we manufacture composite sheets, sandwhich panels, tubing, angle. No order too small. Many Government labs and Universities are using our products, including BAE Systems, NASA, Sandia, JPL, Boeing.
If anyone is interested check us out. www.sierracomposites.com
Happy building.
