Hello everyone! 
I recently posted a topic regarding a bridging issue we were experiencing with an infused carbon fiber part (http://www.talkcomposites.com/25379/Carbon-Fiber-Lifting-Off-Mould). Hanaldo gave some great advice and suggested that we work on positioning the bag more effectively before achieving a complete vacuum. So we worked on that and performed another infusion with 3 layers or 200gsm carbon and 2 layers of soric in between. We pulled the vacuum slowly, positioning the bag, and pressing the layers firmly into the corner of the mold. The end result was a substantial improvement. However, some bridging persists. Please refer to the photos attached below. Additionally, we also have a new issue: The soric is printing through the carbon quite a bit. I believe this might have been a curing issue as the temperature might have been too low. I should mention that we are allowing the vacuum to run for several hours after the part has been infused. This has not created an issue for us in previous parts but might be something for us to consider.

Any suggestions on how to completely eliminate the bridging issue and the soric print through are much appreciated.
