Hello,
I made my first mould (very far from being good but ok for experience) and now I would like to try infusion.
Can you experts give me advice on where to place inlet and outlet?
Would you use a spiral for the inlet or just the silicon connector?
The mold dimensions are 1 meter x 40 centimers
I will use epoxy infusion resin from Easy Composites, slow hardener.
Thanks a lot
