Searched the forum and couldn't find what I was looking for. Apologies if it's been covered........
Does anybody have pictures of tooling they have completed that will show me how to easily secure a 'post' or tab with a threaded insert to the back side of a part?
My thought was that I will make the mold as usual for the front side and while the part is still in the mold, pour a casting resin or some kind of liquid rubber to get the angle and correct mounting location of the 'post'. Layup, infuse, cure, pull peel ply, preload silicone mold with a piece of carbon tubing, epoxy onto part, pull silicone when cured, put threded insert into the post.
Just looking for the easiest, fastest, most cost effective way to do this. 
Thanks in advance guys and THANK YOU SO MUCH for this forum!

+xhow about Make the posts 1-2mm too short screw them onto your fixing plate (on the bike/Car) put a good dollop of Adhesive onto the CF part and push into the correct location hold in place with tape until cured. Remove the whole part now with tacked on fixings and tidy up the glue splodge or add more to make firm.
Thanks!!
