I need to make some carbon tube and suspect i need to make a mandrel in the lathe to lay the carbon over, what would be the best material for the mandrel ? i have some nylon and alloy bar, would i have any release issues ?

Thanks in anticipation

Hi Warren

All layers in one go and wet, the product on the back of the pro finish was making it unwind if that makes sense, it did not help that the tube dia is quite small. I will have another play over the weekend and as the dia is small i am not creating too much scrap.
