So I am doing my first real pre-preg tool.  The mould I had made for me has had issues........ loads of stress cracks appeared after only a couple of pulls.. Not looking for answers or reasons why that mould has had issues. I got so pissed off that I looked into a dozen different things and all I got was dizzy with each person giving me a different reason.  So I took one I had made and lacquered it to get a good finish and to remove some of the raised areas where the original stickers got left on the tank when it was moulded.  I put it back into the mould and have started to remake the mould using pre-preg carbon tooling. So far it seems to be working.. I have done the top section already and although I have not removed the section from the part the flange areas look perfect and if the rest of the mould comes out the same way I will be happy. Having had numerous quotes to remake the mould for me including a quote from the person who made it in the first place (he seems to feel it is other reasons and not his work that has caused the problem). I have bit the bullet with some Tooling from SHD. 

I will post updates as I go and hopefully in a few days will have a finished working full carbon pre-preg mould. 

DONT cut the 1st ply into the corners ! Not if you want a mould to last.

If you don't 45 strip in the corners do what they do at Williams and take your 1st part of the ply into the corner and 5mm onto the other face.

then when you do the other face butt that into the corner.
