Good morning All from Gloucestershire
I am new to this forum but not new to composites as I had worked for over 10 years at a Motorsport manufactures composite shop ( prepeg only and rather large Autoclaves)
I have on the road a 3.5 litre Dax Rush Kit Car and have decided to dabble with some home made composites and start to upgrade some part on the car.
My first project is to remake its bonnet scope in carbon fibre, I have purchased a Uni-mould kit from easy composites which I intend to lay up the scoop mould over the bank holiday weekend.
I am starting on the cheap first and will see if I can wet lay up a carbon skin or two first (once the mould is finished) to see what sort of finish I can get as I don't have access to ovens for curing and before investing in vacuum pumps and resin infusion etc as funds are a little tight.
So I am looking forward to asking for advice and welcoming comments on how to produce some good carbon parts for my car.
Regards
Ian
