Hi guys

I have an idea in mind to make a golf cart using CF. I will use my cart as model but there is some bended parts  that I don't know how to reproduce. I dont have it with me right now and I dont know the exact dimensions but the parts are ab. 1m long, 3-5 cm diameter with a 45 degrees (ish) hinge in the middle.

Any ideas how to make that ? Sould I buy some tubes and connect them with an adhesive? or with some cloth (sleeve ?)? Should I make it all with CF sheets / sleeve?

Cheers from Newcastle !

Thanks all

I understand that is quite difficult to realize.
BTW I was thinking about a bended tube, not a hinge sorry. My english is not really as it should be...
