    Subbing mostly because he made tea correctly, and a little bit because the carbon fibre is awesome

    Wish I could use prepreg, it makes these shapes so much easier. All I do is wet lay, and vents and other shapes like this are an absolute nightmare for me, even in split molds

      Yeah, that's the reason I moved to prepreg. Was to limited things I could make

    • @CarbonWorkshops
      @CarbonWorkshops  8 дней назад

      Most of these parts will be bonded into position. Using a silicone or tiger seal

    hello , great video !! i have a question , when you put the piece in the oven , when you connect the bag to the pipe , is it to inject epoxy resin or is it to remove the air ? thank you

    • @CarbonWorkshops
      @CarbonWorkshops  2 года назад

      The resin is already in then carbon fibre. The hose attached is a vacuum line to remove air.

    How do you make a back side of the part if it has mounting parts or bolt protrusions?

    • @CarbonWorkshops
      @CarbonWorkshops  2 года назад

      To fit this part the panel would be cut out and the vent would be bonded into position around the lip.

    • @CarbonWorkshops

      Biggest problem will be the mould, it needs to be epoxy gelcoat for best results

      Hi, I use this one -
      "SGS 100 Litre Direct Drive Air Compressor - 14.6CFM 3.0HP 100l"
      I was told to get direct drive instead of belt driven and get 100L for multiple small parts like the video it can be sprayed on one tank of air. Never had any problems with this one.

    @srryabturdaughter 8 месяцев назад

    It is so much easier just to use CARBON FIBER material with fiberglass hardeners over a mold. No, it’s not gonna have the same strength, but it’s gonna have the same look if not better!!

    • @TordenPSM
      @TordenPSM 2 месяца назад

      Wet lay is what you are referring to, but no not fibreglass resins, you use epoxy resins for laminating, however, wet lay is much harder to get authentic finishes on objects like this, prepreg is the standard for this.
