Hi there everyone! 
I've recently finished my new X-winder filament winder. Think it might interest some of you Smile 
Pretty cool finding use of some products from Easy Composites I wasn't able to properly use so far BigGrin (carbonfiber tow, shrinktape) 
Anyways have fun watching the video and if you have some ideas for future project videos I could make using this machine, let me know in the comments below!

Does look like a pretty cool machine.  Could have quite a variety of uses winding different specification and type of tubes. By spiral wrapping you could experiment with drive shafts and tubes depending on how much of an improvement you can get in torsional properties of the finished tubes.

I guess experiment with your technique to see how your finish comes out..
