Hmmm. Seems I forget from one post to another how to do pictures. I have the memory of a starfish when it comes to technology.

What you want for phone gallary is the IMAGE tag and just the image ID.

Like this

Funny, but when I opened the page the image didn't show, it just said something like "img 8982". I clicked on it and the image opened by itself, when I clicked to go back to the thread the image was visible in the post. Quirky, but it works.

Looks like you have a fair sized glassing session ahead of you. I am sure you know having some help will make life much better.

Help would be great. Unfortunately, it will be just me. Fortunately will be cool to slow down kicking.

I’m just trying to figure out how long it will take me to wet out the fabric so I have an idea the length of my day.

Well, wet on wet went out the window due to some obligations this weekend, but I did get a third of it done.

24’x50” of 9oz biax done alone in about 2 hours and 15 minutes. Literally spent half the time mixing, so a helper would have made it just over an hour of work.

I enlisted my son to knock out the remainder with me Saturday morning. “Trading” him for some tile work he needs help with.

When I saw your post yesterday I thought, "Heck, I would do it in thirds". I did the LB22 in halves and it's been no problems at all.
