Ciao a tutti,
avrei bisogno di qualche consiglio per realizzare uno stampo per un parabordo. Il parafango è in fibra di vetro e vorrei realizzarlo in fibra di carbonio.
I miei dubbi riguardano i bordi che vanno verso l'interno e quindi creano angoli negativi che impediscono la creazione di un unico stampo.
Poiché questi bordi si trovano su quasi tutti i lati del paraurti, quale pensi sia il modo giusto di procedere?

Grazie mille

1. Yes, bolt the flanges together as soon as you have applied the gelcoat. In all likelihood you will find the gelcoat will be starting to thicken up as you are ready to bolt the flanges on, which is perfect. As long as you get them bolted together before the gelcoat cures too hard to allow that then you're fine.

2. I generally just run a 'ring' of gelcoat around the hole and that will seal it up when you bolt the flanges together. Having a small rattlegun will make it quicker to remove the bolts when you are done as you will likely find gelcoat gets squeezed up into the threads, but even if you don't have a rattlegun its not hard, the gelcoat doesn't stick well to steel bolts.

3. Depends totally on your application. For a race car, I'd be doing a single layer of 200g and a single layer of ~400g, a bit extra in the mounting points, and thats it. For a street car, I probably still wouldn't use a core, but I would probably do 2 layers of 200g, 1 layer of a 400g Kevlar, and 1 layer of a 400g carbon.
