what is the cheapest fiberglas chopper set up ?

[goldhunter_2]

I have built and repaiered many boats over the years I really enjoy it, I like building the bigger boats out of Alumunim but with the prices on the rise I was wanting to build some small ones in glass but not wanting to do hand lay ups. What is the cheapest complete and compact fiberglass chopper set up?

Short of finding a used chop gun on e-bay, be prepaired to pay dearly.. <br /><br /> http://www.shopmaninc.com/equipment.html (scroll down) has a half-azz sort of chop gun...

ya but isn't that just the chopper it self ? <br /><br />The ones I have seen before, you have to have pressure pots and a chopper and a gun ....if that thing is a all in one package thing it sure would be easy to store and may be worth the extra cost

No pressure pot/no resin & catalist spray on it.. It just chops up gun roving...

Call Magnum Venus in Clearwater, they are the largest supplier to the industry and may have a used unit to sell to you. I sold my old one for $800.00, I just wanted it out of the shop. You won't find one that cheap though, maybe $4,000 to $5,000 used.
