mixing a resin and a hardener to form a mixture;
pouring a first portion of the mixture into a mold to provide a first resin layer;
adding a first amount of palm fiber on top of the first resin layer to form a first fiber layer;
compacting the first fiber layer;
pouring a second portion of the mixture into the mold to form a second resin layer on top of the first fiber layer;
