I kow im moving slow but I have had some time to do some work the last few days.
I finished grinding the transome out an mixed some epoxy and cabisil filled in all the uneven spots and any voids. then I ground them flat.
i used a trick that I learned on here to make a template out of paint sticks and a glue gun it worked great.

I then cut out the plywood and laminated it togather with one layer of 1708 and drywall screws . Then I trimed the edges and rounded the inside corners against the original glass.
Waited until today to remove the screws and fill the holes with epoxy and cabosil.
Then layed in a layer of 1708 and clamped it all together with 2x4 clamps and and bolts and filled the edges with cabosil and epoxy.

back at it again today I pulled the bracing off then I soaked some dowel rods in epoxy and installed them in the bolt holes.
Then ground them and every thing else that needed it.
covered the inside with a layer of 1708 and two layers of 750 and tabbed it all in.
