Thanks Rasmussen, yes the soccer is important. 50 million love it but I don't watch it. Dumb game IMO.
Yes it was short due to the overtime on the game.
They want me back it seems but I learned something.
Ask what you're getting and how long.
I started on doing some composite work seeing as I ran out of Argon.
I'm trying not to make molds for the car and what I'm doing is relatively new to me, I THINK.
I have sheets of 10mm Polystyrene and its not to bad on the bending process provided you don't try too tight a radius.
What I did was curve a piece over the roll cage and secure it with some square tubing and c clamps.
It followed the contour perfectly and its longer fore and aft for trimming later.
I then wet the piece with Epoxy resin and applied a layer of peel ply.
Peel ply is used to give the inside of the part being made a good surface when cured for later bonding.
If peel ply is used sanding is not required before laminating.
After that I laid up two layers of Carbon and glass fabric.
Once I'm ready to work the part for final laminating I'll pull the Polystyrene and peel ply out and then vacuum the piece with the honeycomb core and further Carbon and glass.
The shell acts as its own mold.
You could just lay the glass straight on to the Polystyrene and remove it after cure using Acetone to dissolve it but its messy and requires sanding.
The Peel ply is the cheapest fabric in composites but also one of the best.
Some pics of how it came out.
