What's your g-code that you used for the

[@dewitoosthuizen3130]

This wing looks amazing, I want to build on for my race car, where can we find the billet inserts you used to mount it?

[@pawelitwic4404]

Thanks for uploading files ! Tryin to do some to my project

[@jaypabloPL]

Is this a Creality CR-10S Pro printer? Can I do the same thing on a Creality 3D Ender 3 V2 printer?

[@hyeokkkkkk]

고급기술…그저 감탄 하다가 갑니다❤

[@willplanes6441]

absolutely brilliant !! i'm working on a single seater race car project and i gotta say your videos are really useful, keep it up man !!

[@UKBUILT]

Nice 😍 are you recording your build? I am building my dream V12 supercar 😎

[@Runoratsu]

For clamping during glue-up, why not use a vacuum bag as well? It applies very even pressure, and is used a lot in guitar building, for example.

[@leboxon9407]

The part pressed wasn’t filled evenly, only a few strips of foam inside, with vacuum it would have collapsed or the glue would burst out due to the pressure

[@Rulino]

와.... 이번건 진짜 처음부터 끝까지 넉놓고 쭉 봤어요

[@Carbon_Mods]

Glad to see massive improvement vs previous wing 😁. Good job !

[@StoneyBrownTV]

I have never been more inspired to give a try at making a carbon fiber anything. This was a great video my friend. I'm to look into a few parts to make on my car now. Definitely need a standout design like this to make my car one of a kind.

[@philincaundo]

You got that $400 ultrasonic cutter but you're still using the DIY pump lol. Bruh

[@annakquinn7084]

Ultrasonic avoid dust (is a health precaution) and the hand pump makes him work out (help benefit).

Petty 😂😂😂

[@emanuele7800]

He also has a BMW M4 and still uses a non-electric pump hahaha

[@rarih100]

And baby wipes 😂

[@sajidmohammad3190]

​@@rarih100 Well baby wipes are very useful in cleaning works. We don't have any baby but still we always keep these in the house.

[@lotus-jps]

I woul put positioning pins on the 3d printed molds. Makes it easier to assemble and align them correctly.

[@Tom2theY]

Nice work. I want to scan in my current wing so i can make a swan neck version (discontinued 8 years ago). You vids really make it possible!!

[@hafidzgi]

Gorgeous as always! Sorry for your car though, I hope you guys settled it. Anyway, have you done a carbon fiber phone case before? That'd be dope! Since it's smaller, simpler, and also cheaper on the material too, maybe more people will be able to actually start learning how to create carbon fiber stuff

[@hafidzgi]

Ah you already made that one, I don't even remember watching it😅

[@jarnos1000]

Your work is amazing! Keep up the fantastic pieces you make! Absolutely love them!

[@yassinahmed456]

the furious typing sold me, I'm subscribed

[@jackbankson927]

The fact that you made it seem like you did this to be petty to the other driver makes this so much better.

[@MJPilote]

Awesome looking craftsmanship! Not my preferred style of wing but stunning looking work!

[@miguelsalonga7729]

This is dope af. Really wanna try this out during my break from school. And give a friend of mine his wing that he’s been asking for. Thank you.

[@minipineapple45]

So sad to see the accident, glad youre ok though!!

[@TheSocialPraxis]

Amazing man, wish I had these skills to create my own blue cf wing. I have some skills but this is beyond me.

[@2010karatekid]

Glad you're back! Hope you're feeling better

[@madmaz8890]

I have no where near the kit for this but it does give me so insight into how to make one of of metal (Swan neck) at least, also just very much enjoyed the process

[@tetroniks312]

Работа шикарная как и всегда)🖐️👍

[@TeslaDIY]

Amazing work as always bro, truly inspiring, I think I might have to attempt making some sideskirts after watching your videos

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hi bro. Long time no see!! I hope your work goes well.

[@franciscocastilloruiz6610]

A fantastic job.Thanks for sharing

[@jerseyboycustoms]

That keyboard, that was a drumbeat and I know it. I just can't name it!!!

[@CYMotorsport]

I died a little inside when you went straight to UV instead of a fast cut then polish on a pad. Great results still but all that hard work you deserved popping a little Meguiars on there haha

[@MeSs2007]

Awesome! What kind of filament and how much infill did you use for the 3d printed mold parts? 😊

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello, friend I used PLA filament. And the molds are infilled 20%. I hope you helpful.

[@INTcraft]

Nice work! Did you understanf how much sandpaper will you use making carbon parts before you started? Because I did not :))

[@짱구mori]

많이 안다치신거 같아서 다행입니다. 궁금한게 있는데 저렇게 diy하신 파트의 보상은 어떻게 되나요?? 저걸 어떻게 비용으로 책정해요... 아까워요

[@ECOLAPStudio]

안녕하세요. 기본적으로 재료비를 기준으로 보상이되며, 일반적으로 시중에 판매되는 제품의 가격을 참고해서 보상금이 책정되더군요.

[@bercerker1]

I have seen that some runners who make their parts from carbon fiber, they put vinyl in the molds they make for even easier peeling and the surface is even smoother.

[@saltytech5546]

I can almost hear Paul guiding me through the process.

Hey mate! Beautiful work, and also very complex. The small trunk lip, how are they made? Also empty inside? Thank you!

[@Mandk1108]

Awesome spoiler. Hope you're OK after the crash. Top notch work. 👌

[@christophermanley777]

Getting hit from behind absolutely sucks!! I’ve hd it happen twice on the motorway here in Australia, one not dissimilar to this. I’m still super anxious in traffic!! Nice work mate, all your stuff is great, including the video production!!!

[@Phil-bs2fn]

very good video, very inspiring. Great Work 😎👍🏼

[@thefunstuff6121]

Very nice work mate. Use PPE when you are working with carbon fibre. The dust is more dangerous than asbestos

[@matthias5149]

What kind of sick parking house are you. Supercars everywhere. Btw nice job. Looks like a lot of work

[@officiallyKage]

Amazing! I think I will start small and make paddle shifts for my Stronic lol

[@nickhofmann30]

Great work! My only concern i, that Water could get in from the swan neck holders, inbetween the two spoiler halfs

[@brunoserif142]

Ce travail de fou vraiment magnifique chapeau et respect ✌

[@lukewilliamson74]

Have you done any FEA on the wing uprights to see what force they fail at? Working on a carbon fiber wing project myself right now.

[@WestBerlinCustoms]

You did a great job and spent a lot of time with the sanding block - but the result is totally worth it! 👍😎👍 Maybe a fill primer would be a quicker way to eliminate the 3D print structures (instead of the gel-coat), because the primer is way more easy to level. But I hope, you won't have to build another one - at least not for the same reason! Have fun with your great looking car! Greetings all the way from Berlin!

[@voongnz]

Epoxy gelcoat bonds much more stronger and less likely to come apart when de-molding. Maybe with a one-time only use mold, fill primer is fine. But with the amount of materials used just for the molds, it would seem much better to have everything stronger for producing multiple parts before if that is his case. Maybe he just has gelcoat handy on him so he just used it.

[@WestBerlinCustoms]

@@voongnz Your suggestions might be right. I used.plastic primer combined with a high build primer with ABS and PLA prints in the past and had no adhesion issues. As long as the mold is waxed and prepped with PVA, like perfectly shown in the video, filler should be all right. But that's just a little recommendation, the wing came out great and reality proves, there are a lot options to find a solution. 💪

[@voongnz]

@@WestBerlinCustoms yes absolutely, proper application of release agents and mold design is what matters the most when de-molding and having the mold and part in good condition after. Yeah many different processes for the solution, many people just apply a single layer of gelcoat and let it self-level for a smooth finish. So even his example is different.

[@chiefychief23]

Great video! One curiosity, how do to ensure you do not get galvanic corrosion with carbon and metal bolts?

[@nottherealjk]

Good question. Normally contact areas have a layer of fiberglass in between to act as a barrier to prevent conductivity. Didn't see it here as part of the build.

[@DMAX_DIY]

​@@nottherealjk Yeah I'm using aluminum to mount some items on a monocoque I am making. I have read the info and plan on using a thin sheet of fiberglass over the aluminum plates. But IDK.. I heard that GALV corrosion will weaken the carbon (like rust or something?).. If you learn anything about it on your project write me back.. Thanks DMAX motion sim

[@jimmyjones_uk]

Was the foam strips to help build up a lip when glueing the two sides together? Your technique for creating a solid edge/lip is much better and simpler in this video compared to your previous wing.

[@taurus629]

Great job. 👍🏼 where did you get that adjustable sanding block???

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. The sanding block is from Sia.

[@blank2426]

Why don't you make all the body parts with carbon?

[@blank-re8qv]

very interesting idea as a maker, but couldn't you make this design into an active aero system? it seems you have the adjustment design well, but if you could add some strong motors to the rear wing, it could have the wing angle under braking, for example

[@KingandTitanRacing]

Great video but, how did you do the spoiler stalks? Your video focus' not he wing more and they sort of just happen. How many layers of carbon did you use to make them strong enough? Are they hollow, made of 2 parts glued together like the wing?

You cut zero corners that’s for sure, wow! Where did you get the metal bits? And did you mount it to the previous mounting location?

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. The internal mounts are CNC machined. I previously designed the wing to fit its position.

[@Joelmac000]

pretty cool! idk why but it bothers me that the molds don't have index keying to mate together with lol

Where to buy the other materials…… Carbon, bags, epoxy…???? Thanks…. Awesome video

[@ryanhatton6095]

Any chance you have a DIY for making your hand vacuum pump setup? I've got a rotary pump but its quite difficult to get an even pressure pull before it just sucks up the vacuum bag and stops working.

[@pb6839]

How do you know where to cut exactly once it's out of the mold so the two halves align perfectly?

Awesome work, as always!!! I have one question, does the wing work at high speeds? Just curious! Greetings from Spain!!!

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. The wing I made before had no problems at speeds above 250 km/h. And I think the wing made this time is even stronger. ^^

Hello friend. I made a wing that was sized for automotive regulations. My wings don't go outside the body outline. Thanks for your concern ^^

[@TheMomusCollection]

@@ECOLAPStudio very nice, lucky. Over here in Europe we can't make any homemade modifications.

cool video, how did you choose your airfoil for the spoiler? also do you have any videos of the spoiler while driving the vehicle?

Love the outcome looks fantastic. I'm seriously looking at making one now that I have a large enough 3d printer. Can I ask what wing profile you used?

[@peterghimme9661]

It seems that you have not done any measure to prevent galvanic corrosion between CFRP and metal parts.

[@awc.sorensen]

Anodising creates a thick enough barrier between the carbon and the aluminium, and the bonding adhesive gives enough space between the pieces too
