Syr, I don't think there's anything wrong with two 480s, but the 360 should work fine.

Otay...Otay...

I succumb to your peer-pressure....

*sigh* ...dual 480's it is.

CyberDruid - thanks for backing me (I had a fight with myself) on the "low cfm - passive" cooling. I think that I will use some of the 120 x 25mm fans that I have kicking about (not the standard Panaflo 38's)... hmm... I think I have some Red LED jobbers somewhere. Red - that will go well with the theme.


I will be starting the Carbon Fiber bits and pieces this week... I'm kinda nervous.... but what is the worst that can happen...?


prosser13....sweet Veyron, Bro!

prosser13....sweet Veyron, Bro!

I wish I had some pics of the messes I made doing layups years ago...I recommend a respirator if using styrene based sschmoo, paper suit, lots of disposable gloves, plenty of denatured alcohol and rags...a trash box that can be tossed entirely...some paper for the ground or floor...

then again I get kind of fast and furious....the worst was gluing my shorts to my hairy legs...youch

...well... at least you got a free wax job outta the deal!

I haven't done this before, so I am both excited and fearful at the same time. I have done my homework and have all the items that you listed (except the bunny-suit)... but I have a smock.... "smock", "smock", "smock" .... what a fun word to say.

There are about a dozen pieces that I plan (emphasis on plan) to make. I am starting with small angles that will serve as braces to supplement the capillary bonds. I realise that angles are not the best thing to start with, but they are small(ish) and will use the least amount of carbon fiber.... I wanna start out small... ya know... baby steps.

As I mentioned I have done my homework, and watched a short vid. If nothing else in life, I have learned how to follow directions.

Do you have any directions for me or anything that you would like to add.... say.... perhpas how to avoid getting a free wax job?

Get some mold release agent. It's a real useful item. Use large aluminum angle as a mold: wax it up and there ya go. You'll have trouble getting the mylar release sheet to conform to a true 90 without gaps. Get a wide squeegee (now there's another fun word ) to press the spoo into the weave without introducing air. Use more liquid than you think you need and let it work off the panels...

Make sure your lay up table is dead level or you will get thick and thin areas.

Try to work in a spot that is out of direct sun...the spoo is photoreactive and will go off too fast.

Hell I dunno...you'll do great.

In the future look into using two part epoxies like West System or MAAS, far less toxic to breathe and far easier to control. MEK is terribly carcinogenic and goes right into your bloodstream through bare skin.

You have to think in reverse order to get what you want out of the layup...i.e your finished surface is actually your first surface...

CF will not make a tight 90: all corners need a fillet to ease them or a RO if an outside corner. You cannot make the finished surface any nicer than the first shot allows...ie no "fixing up later" it has to be right from the beginning.

Ah you are bringing back memories...memories of hideous failures...and hard lessons
