Ive included pictures of the final product (some of them before they had been flatted and final lacquered), but also some buck pictures so people can see how the shapes were created, maybe give some motivation for those that think it takes more skills than it actually does. here is an original noble dash for comparison Looking really nice. Which method did you use for the carbon part i.e wet layup, infusion etc?

Frame was wet laminated under vacuum in two halves then joined. Stem and various other smaller carbon parts were made with the help of 3d-printed molds and cores.
