Hi all

I need to make 4 tapered tubes, approx 800mm long with 28mm diam one end and 35mm other end.
I am aiming for carbon braid but might also make another 4 in flax, maybe in UD, so compatibility for that
is good to consider to some degree.

But I can´t seem to make my mind up on what method to use and what type of tool to use,
budget is good, so milled alu is possible, or lathed.

The problem as I see it is the diameter, is it possible to infuse inside a toll with this dimension?
I say no if we talk about dist net and bag, traditional infusion (I have infused tube this way before but with diam 100mm ish)
So is it possible to infuse with a bladder inside the braids?

Or should I not infuse at all? Lathe a Alu core/rod and do traditional wet-lay and shrink tape?

Buying prefabs is totally ok, just haven't found any in my dimensions.

Open for suggestions, Thanks
