Hi everyone,

I've just finished a new tutorial and thought it might be worth sharing with all of you,
It's the repair of a broken Carbon Fiber Bike Frame, explained step by step.
Let me know what you think of it, did I made some mistakes?....
I know I went a little to far on the sanding, getting through the finishing layer of carbon, but shouldn't cause 
massive structural problems I think? 

Sorry for the poor english at some times and errors, but english isn't my native language and I did my best to make it understandable Smile

There is also a little publicity for Easycomposites on the pump and so on, will add the easycomposites link in the discription of the video if ok 
for easycomposites guys? Smile

Brilliant job!

Could you not have used high shrink tape to compress it all instead of vac bagging?

heh indeed I learn everyday a bit more about adobe aftereffects :p
last thing is the greenscreen I used for the intro...

Well indeed shrinkage tape would be great, thats why I told in the begininning I will do it on to different ways... 
but the shrinkage tape I'll do on a broken Carbon Hockey stick... to have a bit more variation Smile

Quit hard to improvise and think of words in an other language at the same time :p
