I don't car anything about possessing the final product
I want to create it !
I looked for a way to create composite tubing for weight
and to help with heat issues associated with steel and aluminum
I could find one so I created my own
what I came up with is this stuff right here
this is the same stuff you would have if you broke your arm to make a cast with
I have two ways I like to do this
or two techniques I have developed
basically what this is, is a roll of fiber glass that is activated by water
you bust open this package and dip it in water
that activates it and allows you enough time to wrap it around what ever mold you have before it hardens
two was to do this, you can create some induction tubing with steel as a mold
this one I have simply tacked together
i then wrapped it with the casting tape
and the I took and split it down one of the sides
you can kind of see where I have split that
once I split it I was able to peel it apart to get it off the mold...you can then go back and glue the seem together
this will give you a base to work from
you can then wrap with more casting tape or cover in carbon fiber
the other technique I developed was
you create your induction tubing and then split it into four sections
puts some plugs in each end to help it hold its shape
you then wrap it
then pull the plugs out
and the you can actually take each piece of steel out seperately
then your left with one solid piece of tubing that has no seems
at that point you can then reinforce with carbon fiber if you like
I am actually do this one for you to see
casting tape
remove the roll
dip it in water
then just roll it on to your part or mold
so we are going to give that about ten minutes to harden
alright it has been about ten minutes
its nice and hard
its not tacky
i have already took the screws out of this side
then just pull out your plugs
I have them number so I know how to put the mold back together
once the plugs are out
you can just push these out one piece at a time
what your left with is a nice solid piece of fiberglass
its very light weight
you can sand it if you like. You can see how I have done this one
you can also reinforce this with a sock type of carbon fiber weave
which I am going to show you how to do in another video
