When attempting to modify my battery tray (and suffering from dehydration) I mistakenly cut through the outer skin of the fuselage.
The damage is approx 2" x 1/32nd".
Is this structural or cosmetic?
Definitely structural. Major. Pretty bad spot for such a damage.

How would the fiberglass guru's here repair the damage?
A proper repair is going to require about one square ft of multilayer
skin replacement and some practice.
Get the glider into a repair shop if you haven't done such a major
repair yet.
Best of luck
