I've done it a couple times and it's not that hard, but rchippie is right, your first couple will be considered sacrificial. You could practice on a cheaper fabric such as fiberglass until you get the feel for spreading the epoxy. Google it and there are tons of how to pages. You can build your own form from something as simple as wood and start with laying up wet (of course you'd need a release mechanism in place, etc.). From there, to experiment with vacuum bagging, you can buy yourself a used Foodsaver vacuum sealer at a garage sale for about ten bucks and use it to vacuum bag your own parts. The results are almost as good as the real thing, for a lot less money.
