Working on so many things in the same time. Soon will be more 🛠️🤘

Now i see why carbon parts are so expensive👍🏼

[@zrcarbon9937]

Hey Yes, the labour is the huge part of the price. 🛠️🤘

[@dropinmedia01]

Again a very satisfying video to watch! And I love the easy that the lug-on for the recessed bolt came loose from the mold.. It would not have been the fist time that someone has broken the mold, releasing the plug..

[@dropinmedia01]

And nice that you have extended the vacuum bag outside the oven, to maintain the vacuum within.. 🤘

I have carbon front and rear huggers, side panels and fairing inserts, water cooler covers on my 01 FZ1. I shot violet pearl with 3 coats clear. LOVE IT. Get tons of compliments. Love your process. Keep up the great work

[@josephbrawn329]

Hey man, nice work, great looking parts! Is that a 3D printed plug that you bonded on the part? I was definitely curious how you’d laminate those pieces! I’ve enjoyed following your build so far, looking forward to the rest 👊🏼

[@robertopaolucci881]

Amazing! Do you think the home oven is enough to cook prepreg? Really nice job, I have to do almost the same part, but with hand layup will be a Nightmare 😅😢

[@leoa.633]

regarding the temperature its definitely good enough. Obviously you get more pinholes and porosities than in an autoclave process, because there is less pressure to compress the air bubbles. For better results at home doing a debulk (pulling vacuum) after the first layer improves the pinhole issue. also don't use autoclave prepreg as it has less resin in it and might seem dry if process only with the 1bar you get when pulling vacuum.

[@robertopaolucci881]

@@leoa.633 Thanks for the reply, the thing that concerned me the most is the curing time, for prepreg is usually 6/7 hours with temperature increased during the time. It's very difficult to achieve this on the regular oven IMHO. But the result looks great, so maybe it's just fine. Also like you said maybe debulk and specific prepreg are the key! damm this video made me want to try, but my wife wouldn't be happy I guess ahahaha

[@zrcarbon9937]

Just like as mr. leoa.633 said. 🤘

[@Noldimo22]

@@robertopaolucci881in fact following the perfect temperature ramp up and down is mandatory to achieve best mechanical properties , in this case as the parts are only visual it doesn’t make too much . And mechanically wise difference is in between 10-30% less properties , which is still several times more than the OE plastic 😊. So you’re definitely right in your thinking , in this case that’s fine ✌🏻. And what a beautiful set of parts ! Even if I’m dealing with prepReg everyday i was really curious how the deep and thin screw hole would turn out 🤩. Well done Mr ZRCARBON 🤩

[@robertopaolucci881]

@@Noldimo22 thanks, this is exactly what I wanted to hear hahahaha. this makes prepreg more accessible to us humans. I guess it's time to buy the vacuum pump. and yes you are right, the fixing part seems to come out very well, usually with carbon we make them wider and with more draft. beautiful, I can't wait to try it at this point.

[@BoisesBaggedSupra]

Looking to get into making a few carbon parts. In need of a vacuum pump and was curious what pump are you using? I like how quiet it is.

[@fdoelmand]

Very nice! How much lighter?

[@zrcarbon9937]

Thanks! I didn’t check the weight. Probably not much difference. 🏍️🛠️👍

What is the purpose of baking products? Can you just vacuum seal it and not bake it?

[@JunoW712]

Great Video! One question: Why do you use the filleting wax on the corner of the mould? Doesn't that offset the true edge of the part?

[@zrcarbon9937]

Thanks for the compliment. The reason for that to cover up any tiny gaps, wholes between the barrier and the part. So the gelcoat won’t get in there. That’s the beauty of it. It has to be done in a way that won’t change the shape of the pattern. 🛠️🤘

[@sandduurr]

How did you make the white pin you glue on at the end?

[@zrcarbon9937]

Hi I 3D printed the pins

[@flypip]

Hey nice work, what clear coat did you use? I'm looking for a good UV resistant one.

[@zrcarbon9937]

Hey Thanks for the compliment. I used and regularly using Mipa 2K HS Carbonic lacquer 🛠️🤘

[@dudoplatz]

do you actually use epoxy resin on vacuum?

[@zrcarbon9937]

Hey No I don’t. I’m using prepreg carbon fibre. It has resin already.

[@cedricassysamjue-be6wb]

Sir what kind of carbon cloth you used..thanks

[@zrcarbon9937]

Hi I used prepreg carbon fiber. The carbon cloth is pre impregnated with resin. 🛠️🤘

[@pedromelro7539]

What’s the type of resin that are u using? Epoxy?

[@sativa800]

Hi, can you share what material you use to made those lugs? Thanks

[@zrcarbon9937]

I used PLA but only for the prototype. In the future I’ll use cf

[@sativa800]

Is there a possibility to made those sort of lugs of carbon fiber? As they looks very tiny, I just can’t get my hear round how to made them with cf. I think the 3d printed lugs is the easiest way to made them. Is that epoxy will stick to the abs or petg lugs? Any thought! I’m asking as I’m in process right now to make my own cf motorcycle parts too. Thanks for sharing
