This is really brilliant.. I can imagine how light this would be. One suggestion. Instead of the long strands, you can maybe cut a 3k cloth in the frames design and lay it in the mould and then lay river pieces. I believe this way you'll have the best of strength.
I have conducted research on carbon safety, and I did not find any significant concerns related to skin contact with cured carbon fiber dust, except for some occasional mild allergic reactions. I believe that it is much more dangerous to operate rotary power tools with gloves. Do you have any information on the dangers of skin contact with carbon fiber dust? I always use a respirator with a particulate filter for cutting and grinding, and I ensure that all work is done outdoors. I take my PPE pretty seriously so I appreciate any tips.

You had me chuckling in sympathy at the spaghetti monster assembly stage, I've been there!
Awesome result in the end, looked really neat.
It looks so cooooooooool!
Really nice, how durable is it ?
Oh my god please wear gloves and wet the carbon when cutting and grinding to avoid getting it into your hands and lungs!

@@AlenHR what do you think of nitrile or vinyl gloves? They would protect from the carbon dust and would probably snap if caught in the tool.
