Fairly new to all this skinning business etc, all the parts ive done so far have been just skinning, I am taking on a project to do a motorbike fuel tank. would it be beneficial to vacuum bag this tank to ensure the fabric stick to all the edges and curves properly? if so, any tips for bagging would be greatly appreciated! I have a bagging kit and vacuum on its way from easy composites. thanks in advance!

Not if you vent the tank through to the outside of the bag Steve. Then you are pulling air into the tank from outside the bag, which is essentially creating a leak in the bag but preventing the tank from collapsing. Thats ok for skinning, it just means you would need a vacuum regulator to leave the pump running and still only pull low vacuum.
