I love the texture of "Forged" carbon fiber. It gives me an idea to do kitchen counter-tops using this method. It has a "Black Granite" quality about it. Looks cool!
Pro tip for ya: When working with MDF, use a sanding sealer on all the surfaces. It’s cheap, and it doesn’t change its shape or properties, but it does “seal” it when pouring resins or epoxies or even painting it. It’s very easy to use, dries fast, and once keyed, provides the same adhesion as the raw MDF in my opinion. Love the channel!
Hello, Buddy! Thank you very much for your advice. I'll try it the next time I work with MDF. I'm will make a fun and informative video. Stay tuned to my channel. Thank you.
@@ECOLAPStudio this "sealer" is just PVA ....in my opinion its waste of time if you aply thick resin / gelcoat and in the same time it is used as release agent for resin etc so.......
This is what I've been planning on doing. Only problem is that it limits where you can screw it and you will also need to apply carbon fiber to the bottom of the table. You will have to create a mechanical lock or use glue to allow screws to be used.
@@vocks85 best case, you would install a metal nut that would be mechanically locked when the carbon fiber is hardened. Most feasible case is just to use rivet nuts as it would make a mechanical lock. The rivet nut becomes a potential failure point, but in reality, furniture really doesn't need that level of strength.
@@agungwidjaya3778 Sorry for the late response. 5 months later and RUclips sends this alert. With forged carbon use whatever the cloth you want. If you want wide go wide. If you want narrow weave go narrow. With forged carbon its not the same as continuous weave. Its cosmetic not structural. Pick the cloth that has the look that you are trying to achieve. It will be light and look great, but dont count on it being any stronger than the epoxy bound with
That came out sweet, I swear when you was putting down the fibers it looked just like the bottom of a very nasty chicken coup...;) What a fantastic use of leftover carbon fiber!
Just discovered the channel and love the content! You should consider selling miscellaneous items as i know many people as well as myself would be interested! Keep up the great work!
I just watched this video for a second time and still that forged carbon fiber looks real good! One question regarding the finishing, on this video I see you sanded and then used a cutting compound to get the high gloss shine but I have seen in other videos after sanding people apply 2k clear lacquer. Question is which more durable and better for car interior pieces, sanding and then cutting and buffing the epoxy resin or sanding the then applying the 2k lacquer?
Can someone please explain to me how the hell he got that gloss finish after just using a cutting compound, I mean he had to have used multiple other compounds off camera to get to that
I hope you can help me, is it necessary to use peel ply? Or could it be made without it, even if the finish was different? And if the epoxy gel coat is the same that people use when working fiberglass
great work. try using half the amount of compound. you'll get a better cut and have less chance of pig tailing the epoxy. seriously awesome videos my man. maybe use foam instead for extra weight reduction?
Perfect job, man! Like your videos very much! Can you give us (your subscribers) advice, how to do cylindrical things such as vase, skittle or may be intake manifold pipe by using mold and without damaging original item. I know that we need to use at least 2 part fiberglass mold, but don’t know how to put pieces together.
Hello, Buddy! Can you make the cylinder into styrofoam? If you can, skin carbon fiber made of styrofoam (requires multiple layers). And styrofoam can be removed with acetone. I hope helpful.
It’s a good idea to use styrofoam. But what if we need to make complicated item which I can’t make out of styrofoam or may be if we need reusable mold?
Sehr schönes Video und alles sehr gut verständlich. Schöne Einblendung der benutzten Materialien und sehr gut erkennbar wie alles umgesetzt wurde😄 Finde das Ende ziemlich hart, wenn der ate Tisch zum Verkauf steht, wäre ich gerne interessiert diesen zu erwerben.
At first I thought that looks a mess but when the article was finished....wow! it looks good! One question can you use rubbing alcohol or isopropyl alcohol instead of acetone to the clean the item?
This is a great video. If I want a skinned bumper, how much carbon fiber do I need to prepare, and how much do I need to deploy the epoxy. If you can give me suggestions, I will be very grateful, thank you!

I understand this isn't necessarily meant to be a structural item, but cutting the carbon fiber like that likely removes a lot of the strength characteristics that it contains.
Amazing. I’m looking to this on some of my interior trim in my car, but I want the forged dry effect. I mean without the gloss. Should I just stop before the polishing part or there is a different procedure?
Hello, Buddy! If you want matte carbon fiber, you can use matte clear spray after sanding. However, care must be taken to avoid pinholes when using it. because matte cannot be polished.
Can you try to do more things entirely out of carbon? I love things wraped in Carbon but that doesn’t give you the benefit of the extreme low weight carbon fibre has! 😅👌🏼

@@ECOLAPStudio Yeah I know that and I didnt mean that you would have to do the whole table out of carbon haha Thats totally okay the way you did that because nobody would make it different! But i meant that I would love to see more videos where you build things entirely out of carbon! ;D
Hi !! it's amazing, but I heard MDF is dangerous to human due to its dust. So is it safe to use as an indoor furniture? Is it alright if we coated the exposed mdf board with epoxy resin to prevent its dust come off from the board? thanks for this great video
ECO-LAP Studio -I just subscribed you have great content! I have a question, is the epoxy that you use for the topcoat different then the base layers? Also what is the brand you use?
Hello, Buddy! The two epoxy resins are different epoxy resins. Originally, the top coat resin I used was very transparent, but it seemed to be discolored. However, I checked that the topcoat epoxy resin turns into a transparent color when cured. ^^

Guys ! The best channel about carbon fiber on RUclips is here!
You should start using foam cores on some of your projects. In this case a foam wrapped table would weigh WAY less. Love your channel!
This is what I've been planning on doing. Only problem is that it limits where you can screw it and you will also need to apply carbon fiber to the bottom of the table. You will have to create a mechanical lock or use glue to allow screws to be used.
@@Lolatyou332 could you drill holes in the bottom, fill with epoxy or carbon epoxy mix, and tap it? Or you could just drill holes and install rivnuts?

NICE AND FUNNY JOB, PLS MORE CARBONS FOR M4, I LOVE THIS CAR
amen
Please make a forged CF remote holder. Also you could have used thick glass sheet with some weights on top to make the surface perfectly smooth.
That would look even more awesome with gold flakes in it but wow looks amazing

Oh yeaaah une nouvelle vidéo 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Can you make a video making something in colored carbon? How does that work? How do you add color?
Thanks. Love your work.
colored carbon fiber has to be specially order because the color is mixed in the weave
You can either buy coloured weave or tint the final clear coat

That would be sickkkkk as a front splitter.
should do the initial layup in reverse on a piece of glass, would save time sanding, and the top would turn out laser flat.
