    One thing I learned with casting metal, try to not make 90° angles in castings. Add a few degrees to the walls and the mold will pop the part right out.

    Hard work but in the end the result has been incredible and it is clear that you have very good knowledge of how to treat carbon fiber and the material you have needed has been 10. Hopefully one day I will know how to do what you have done. great job man!

    Oh boy, i've been there as well! Kudos to your persistence. Its hard. I know it is. But you did it - exceptionally well! Its done now, but my two cents for your project would have been: start with a positive mold. Less tricky with complex corners such as yours. Draft angles! Can't say for sure, but it looks like you held back on those a bit? Use a specialized filler or prime coat to get rid of layer lines and make sanding MUCH easier + you can achieve a perfect finish straight from the mold. Get (make) a vacuum pump. You can easily build one from a compressor off an old refrigerator or AC unit in a day or two - and comes in very cheap (80-100 bucks max.)

    Great project! My humble experience shows that any project can have some flaws. And it's great if you can still make great detail even it has some problems first. And your work with 3d model and electrics is impressive as always!)

      Hi, Bro!
      Thank you for the comment.
      Actually, I've made 4-5 molds.
      so, I had failed a lot. That was so hard works.
      Recently, I am loving 3D design, and electronic works.
      My major was computer programming in University.
      I hope to develop electronic modules and carbon fiber parts for car.
      Thanks for the good comment always.
      Thank you bro.

    for anyone trying something like this, use a SEALING facemask when sanding carbon fiber, the dust it creates is extremely bad for your lungs.

    • @ECOLAPStudio

      Hi friend.
      I applied the fillet to the new mold and it helped a lot with the release as well as the shaping of the fibers.

    • @ECOLAPStudio
      @ECOLAPStudio  3 роки тому +1

      Hello friend
      In positive molds, carbon fiber is laminated on top of the mold, so carbon fiber parts larger than the size of the molds are completed.
      The negative mold will have the same shape as the designed model.

      Prepreg carbon fiber is now stored in the freezer.

      It can be stored for about 1 month at room temperature.

    Enabling ironing with a 25% flow would have given you flat top surfaces. This would just leave the vertical faces needing sanding.
