    just a note carbon fiber is directional so lay your carbon in a direction that will get tension (pulling) force. it is also good to change directions of the fabric between each layer for a all around stronger part i.e. 0 deg then 45 deg then 0 deg. if you are on the cheap a shop vac has enough force to vac bag for someone that isn't going to do a lot of parts. one last comment it is best to put a resin collection bucket between your part and pump so the pump does not suck resin into the pump and ruin the thing.

    Being an aviation composite guy for about 20 yrs. I will say that was a good basic demo on wet layups. That process can also be used with woven glass and kevlar. There were a few little things that could have been said differently but that is me looking at it from a tradesman's point of view. It is a good video never the less. My only advice would be that when you place your vacuum puck under your bagging and on your breather. Leave enough space for the puck to not rest on your part. It will leave an impression in the cured piece. Also, you should never need anything more than 25 to 30 inches of mercury on your vacuum. Any more than that then you start to get into what is called resin starvation where you are pulling too much out of your layups. There is a plethora of information out there your guys and gals that want to try this at home. I will say this do your research before you jump into a big job. Start off small sharpen your skills. I have been there before and it is very easy to screw up a whole layup with one little mistake. Composites are still fun for me after all these yrs. So have fun and don't be scared to fail at it. It will happen even when you did everything correct.

    • @waddsworth
      @waddsworth 6 років тому

      Yeah just run a strip of breather off to the side of the part and work the bag as you pull vac

    • @bobbywartman2058
      @bobbywartman2058 4 роки тому

      I agree.......I would also take a piee of bleeder cloth say 6in X 6in.....fold it up to protect the fitting from resign being sucked in it. I have also seen where running your vacuum to high....I usually shoot for 14inhg......Higher and I have resign starved the part.

    You can use an air conditioner or refrigerator compressor for a vacuum pump as well. Easily pull 27-28" of vacuum. You can get em for free off the curb or in scrap yards. I have used them extensively to vacuum down AC&R systems before charging them.

    The breather layer looks to be upholstery dacron. It's used on top of foam for surface smoothness, fill &/or shaping the upholstered item.
    You will find it in couch cushions, throw pillows, and the like. Some sleep-type pillows are filled with dacron in a bulk form, rather than sheets.

    • @Thefabforums
      @Thefabforums  5 років тому

      yeah thats basically what it is

    • @georgedennison3338
      @georgedennison3338 5 років тому

      Thought so, and was hoping so. As much as I love to make fiberglass stuff, use epoxy to repair things, and have been 'itchiing' to do some carbon fiber, I cringe every time I use the stuff, because the entire world those two materials/processes are in, is so non-reusable/recyclable.
      Pillows are landfill foder, so harvesting dacron from them for this is a great idea.
      If we could just figure out what combination of plastics,to melt together to get epoxy, we'd have 'er dicked... LOL
      Keep up the vids. you do a good job exposing guys to productivity increasing tools. Lifetime tools, if your viewers are smart.
      I'm pushing 66, and still have lifetime tools I bought, or were given, as early as my teens.
      They've given me good service, helped feed and clothe my kids, and still do the job they were intended for, whenever asked.

  • @michaelmeisman4731
    @michaelmeisman4731 8 років тому

    Well done for the beginner. I have been laying up carbon fiber for going on 20 years and you did hit the big stuff. PrePreg will help a ton with waste resin. With PrePreg your breather hardly gets wet.

    @danielaskey5990 8 років тому

    Thanks for the video and parts list. I had watched Easy Composites process videos. I had not considered hand lay up then vacuum bagging instead of pulling resin from a supply line. Your approach may simplify the setup. Thanks!

    one thing to add is if you can use a catch tank between your part and the vac pump in case you have to much resin you dont want that in the vac pump!

    • @Thefabforums
      @Thefabforums  8 років тому

      For sure...I never use one, usually just make some bridging with the breather to catch it all

    been doing carbon stuff as needed for over a year...curious how do you get nice finished edges on parts with a core material? Also how do you incorporate fastenters into your parts or sealable flanges loke on valve covers?
    props for exposing carbon to people. really just get a kit guys and play around. who doesnt like carbon fiber??

    • @Thefabforums
      @Thefabforums  8 років тому

      Great questions. I think flocking is the secret to getting good edges when using core materials. The way I would mount a fastener would be to use it in place of the core material.

    Appreciate you sharing this info. I am left with one question as a total Newby. on the wax layer in the very beginning. do you apply it then buff it out like waxing a car or do you apply it and leave it on? sorry if it's a stupid question but I've never done this before. thanks again

    • @Thefabforums

    I'm doing all my studying on getting into carbon fiber making, plan on starting with canards for cars. What would you suggest for extra rigidity since they will see a fair amount of air to divert, the last thing I want is it being flimsy. I was thinking of stacking thin layers, but also was looking into using thin marine foam for the inside and 2 layers on either side of it

  • @chetlangford2144

  • @Krasinski1
    @Krasinski1 7 років тому

    also do you need both PVA and mold release wax?? I only bought PVA thinking that would be enough, or can't I just use plastic release film as a mold release method?

    • @Thefabforums
      @Thefabforums  7 років тому

      release film will leave wrinkles in your part. I suggest wax and PVA

  • @Krasinski1
    @Krasinski1 7 років тому

    i just bought a roll of carbon fiber twill weave 2x2... and its basically seethrough all over. gaps throughout all of it... is urs like that too? even if i tighten the weave a bit and tape it there are still gaps, is it just something that is no longer noticeable once there is a few layers down?

    • @Thefabforums
      @Thefabforums  7 років тому

      I think the 2x2 is like that. when you stack the layer you wont see it as long as the top layer weave is nice and straight. You will probably need to go to a 6x6 or higher to keep from that happening

  • @willmcalister9840
    @willmcalister9840 7 років тому

    If anyone cares to get technical, like he was saying, you'll put the first layer down then the 2nd at 45 deg from that. The 3rd would be 45 deg the opposite way. So on and so on. Just adding in the event anyone was curious.

    Killer video Kyle. I so want to get into cf. I've watched tons of videos on it. Ya'll make it look easy. Do the parts come out of the bag finished? As in do you need to sand them? Or polish? Or clear coat? What would the finishing process be if the parts need to be finished.

    • @Thefabforums

      If the mold is clean and slick the parts will come out finished. I usually end up sanding and clearing my stuff.

  • @MindDezign
    @MindDezign 6 років тому +2

    Good work you also dont really need the fancy quick disconnect fitting you can double side tape the plastic vacuum hose to a small hole in the outer plastic ,that works very good , just besure you have a good seal.and wrap a little breather cloth on the end to prevent it sucking the plastic.
    Dont worry about losing anyone. Anybody interested will stay with you intensively.
    I built military helicopter parts of carbon fiber and kevlar. Your right for such things you need a freezer to keep prepreg in you need an autoclave , and your right there are so many other ways to use high tech materials without the high tech nethods. Low tech cam easily be used with high tech materials.

    • @Thefabforums
      @Thefabforums  8 років тому

      depends on a ton of factors....thickness of fabric, amount of layers, type of resin. I have made intake manifolds, accessory brackets, and induction tubes that were all very strong with no autoclave. Really the autoclave method is only used for prepreg

    Can I use my home vacuum machine that is used to vacuum food bags?

    • @Thefabforums
      @Thefabforums  8 років тому

      maybe....but I wouldn't recommend it. Really need something that can pull 20 inches of vacuum and hold it for a long period of time

    One comment, FibreGlast is heinously overpriced. Check out Soller Composites and ACP Composites for less price gouging

      But in general I completly agree with you, doing/building something with carbon fibre isn't as complicated as it seems, but it has it's advantages and disadvantages, like lightweight, but expensive, easy to manufacture, but a lot of stuff to throw into the trash afterwards - especially with prepreg... Jeez thats a mess... Or gringing or cutting it afterwards... More than once I had a pretty bad itch after I was done, but thats nothing you can't get off with good warm shower :D
