M Group: Forum Members Posts: 1, Visits: 11	Hey guys! I am new to this forum! I’ve started working around with carbon 2 years ago but now I’m trying to make some more advanced parts. I would need some help or ideas on how to make the piece (linked bellow) in carbon. It needs to be really strong between the two red pods because the pods are the handle of the bike.

I agree that it is really accessible and you don't need much experience either. Most people can experiment with some small parts and in choosing a process that works for them, very quickly start...
