In this tutorial we show you how to use a new mould making putty material to create a high quality mould suitable for use when making your own carbon fibre parts (covered in our other tutorials). The materials and techniques shown in this video accompany our Carbon Mods Carbon Fibre Mould Making Kit...
This episode covers how we wrapped raw carbon fibers immersed with epoxy around carbon tubes and then vacuum bagging them. One of our junctions used 10 feet of 50k carbon tow (roving) and the other used 20 feet of the same material. this time we used a slightly more viscous epoxy (hysol EA-9430) Not...
Part 4. More work on integrating the sub-frame into the aerodynamic fairing and the main drivetrain section. Using Freeman 1020 Low-Density Epoxy Molding Compound (aka...Cookie dough.) we got some very nice results but note, do not exceed the 1/2 inch thickness spec unless you have a really good way...
