Hi All,
We're now stocking
epoxy tooling board
at Easy Composites HQ. In the next few weeks we'll be producing some tutorial videos about end-to-end production of really high-end composite moulds, starting off by CNC machining epoxy tooling board and then sealing the board before using it to produce prepreg moulds. Epoxy tooling board can also be used to make the moulds (tools) themselves for smaller production runs which of course can make the mould making process quicker whilst reducing cost (where you only need a limited number of pulls).
I thought I'd strike up a conversation about CNC machining patterns or moulds to see if there are any particular areas that people would particularly like to see in the videos or understand better about the process.
If you have any questions or anything to input on the subject, please fire away
All the best, Matt

Very interesting, but I get a "404" when trying to take a look at this new product --
"Sapere Aude"... Dare to KNOW!

Do not adjust our mind, theres a fault in reality :-)

Hmm, that's odd. It looks like the link is right and the product is active and visible. It's probably just that your browser has cached the JSON file the holds our product catalogue and it's not expired yet. Hit CTRL and F5 and you should see it.

Hi Julian, The sealer is an upcoming product and will be with us in the next few weeks. We do not have an exact date yet as we are awaiting final production schedules.

A bit off the wall, but will it take a thread? I am considering using it not as a mould, but as a core!

The board is quite hard and rigid so I can't imagine a needle would push through unless the board is cut into a thin section. The epoxy block and board sealer as a pattern making system has the...
