Have some weight bearing aerofoil shaped supports to make, which will have metal milled inserts bonded in for the hardpoints at each end. I can 3D mill the foam core, has anyone tried carbon skinning in an application that requires some strength? Would I be best doing it under a vacuum? Could I infuse? How would I ensure a cosmetic finish (I guess at the very least it'll need flatting back plus lacquer)

Any experiences/tips would be great to hear!
