does anyone know what video he is speaking? about when he says Fender building link and speaker enclosure?
This kind of work ...
This kind of work is so easy. Wax the s**t out of your mould, apply a bit of resin over it all before the first layer of? glass or whatever so you get an even saturation within the material, apply layers but make sure you have sufficient resin between layers. Roll ALL air out (but make sure you don't over saturate and f**k the glass or core), leave excess resin or screet off with a rubber screet.
How can I get in ...
How can I get in contact with you? I posted a thread at the BARF community in hopes to reach? you. Please contact me back.
Is it possible you ...
Is it possible you could make a list of how much? to use of different materials to make the tank and mold. From the barf forrum. :)

can you suggest a? book or guide complete with materials and equipment needed to fabricate carbon fiber?
thanks in advance!
You could make the ...
You could make the entire freakin' car out of carbon fiber if you wanted to........and had some time. Just check out the cars of the American Le Mans series (is that still around, anyone? not kept up). The only things NOT carbon fiber on those? cars were the drive trains and a few other parts.
Jeez. That's ...
Jeez. That's awesome.
It would probably be a daunting? task, though.
of? course! You can ...
of? course! You can make almost anything with carbon fiber.
Could this be done ...
Could this be done with car? parts?
e.g.
Hood
Fenders
Trunk
Thanks in Advance
Nice Nice Video. I ...
Nice Nice Video. I really loved your video. Youtube? can be a great asset for you. If you need any help getting your video exposed, check out this site called tubeviews [dot net] It has really done wonders for me, I have built 3 Channels up with videos at top in position and this is my forth channel i'm going to working on.
I love it!

does the rubber in the instructors yellow wrist band affect? the chemicals of the products?
i dont understand ...
i dont understand now so hes makign the mode for carbon fiber because in clip 4 the finished parts looks in grey color and carbon fiber doesnt look black right
and second how did he melt that carbon? fiber into mode shape he didnt show it on video

1. No gelcoat for carbon fiber, just resin. You won't see the carbon.
2. Get PVA? from Fiberglass Services in Gardena, CA (carbon cloth, fiberglass, epoxy etc etc as well. They supply surfboard makers, they have everything, they're super cheap, and very very nice)
3. PVA should be sprayed on, not wiped on.
Good luck.
Thanks for watching ...
Thanks for watching. Nope. Since it was just a "practice" workshop, we just put resin on the carbon fiber & on the mold. I was? told we could've gelcoated 1st.
hi mate, i was ...
hi mate, i was wondering? did he/you gelcoat the carbon parts before laying up?
you can try ...
you can try fibreglast (note spelling)if there's nothing local. ? Maybe others have suggestions for better places.
Where's a good ...
Where's a good place to purchase PVA for? mold casting as shown in this video? Would you find it at a place like Lowe's or would I have to search through specialty shops?
good call man. it ...
good call man. it will happen its only a matter of time.?
very very thin, the ...
very very thin, the thickness of the fabric itself is like a 64th of an inch. Small pieces unravel really easily though so you may want to put some sort of backing on it before you cut it. I would use a nice pair of scissors. Depending on what you're inlaying in you can just cut route the inlay about twice as deep as you need, lay? the fabric in with a little adhesive and drown it in bartop epoxy... sand and polish once its dry and voila! Good luck and let me know how it turns out man.
I want to make just ...
I want to make just a carbon fiber inlay. Can anyone tell me how thinnest carbon? fiber can go 1/8th inch? 1/16th?
Thanks

Do not work with ...
Do not work with Epoxy Resin, Polyester Resin, Hardener, without safety goggles because it is very difficult to remove from your eye.
Being careful, it took me a whole year to get one? splash on my goggles, but I did it.
The idea of ...
The idea of spraying PVA? (poly vinyl alcohol) is to build up even uniform layers. Slopping it around is not a good idea unless you're really know what you're doing and let it full dry.
pva: wait until ...
pva: wait until dull (dry)- just a few minutes.
epoxy: can take all day/depends on air temp. wait? until fully dry.
how long does he ...
how long does he leave the epoxy and pva to set before laying up?, because? when i finished the lay up the wax sort peeled off(stuck to the cf part lol)
cool? tip!
