Group: Forum Members Posts: 10, Visits: 85	Hi everyone, I've been lurking for a little while whilst I've been trying to learn about carbon fibre and composites so thought it was time to say hello! Complete novice to composites/laminates and primarily planning on making bike parts so I started on a saddle pan. Bought the epoxy mould kit and made a pattern from my existing saddle. First pull was much better than I had assumed it would be but still far from perfect though I know what to improve on next time. Starting hand wet lay to begin with and the first attempt was without pulling a vacuum. Pretty obvious I need to look at getting a vacuum pump and I've read lots about infusion so much to learn (and buy). I've started an instagram for my adventures so check it out if you're into that sort of thing - instagram.com/fromhomeworkshop Feedback is always good too Cheers Rich Attachments 12362485_1545369865786146_666196980_n.jpg (558 views, 159.00 KB) 12345880_1696842367193925_1690482510_n.jpg (546 views, 122.00 KB)
