The motions Tom has with that wooden stick are like Picasso with a paint brush!

I enjoy and learn from your clever approaches as much as you're examples of working with carbon fiber.

I've watched many people lay up glass and carbon, done many myself but have never seen anyone use a squeegee stick to spread the resin. It's remarkably quick and effective.

Tom!!! You haven't posted much and I am just learning about your replica build. I heard about your accident and I am so sorry to hear about this. I hope you are able to get the B-29 flying soon.

Just found your channel and subscribed. Then realized you hadn't posted in a year. Too bad because I watched your other videos and was looking forward to more great information. Anyway hope things are going well for you. Cheers.

Sure would love to learn more about the PSRU on those engines. Is there a link for videos or articles on those?

Great stuff Tom! I don't suppose you have any video of the top layup and possibly the remoulding from the wing of the semi-finished product?

Thanks so much for taking the time to video your process! It's super valuable to get to be a fly on the wall watching someone who's done this a lot! I have questions - It looks like you might be constructing large parts of the fuselage and wings with aluminum skin riveted over CF ribs - is that done primarily for cost considerations? Also, how did you deal with galvanic corrosion between the skin and the ribs?

What kind of resin n hardener are you using? Where can I get it? What kind of fiber is that n where can I buy it at? Any info is greatly appreciated thank you!

Try a vacuum bag, leave the air leaks, but use a shop-vac for continuous airflow until cured?

Great video. Do you have any info on the scaled B-29 you are building? Where will the pilot sit? Is the dome on the top of the fuselage for the pilot? Will it have retractable landing gear? Thanks!

well 4inch foam pads may not be the most elegant solution with packing tape vise ... but yu must admit it doesnt care what the shape is nor does it care how many bumps it has or doesnt ... just press it firmly and tape up the edges to keep them smooth and poof instant odd shape form one size fits most jobs larger jobs need more stuff

Tree meter sheet metal brake, awesome and English wheel and and. I wish you a good health and long life. Dit that the same inside my car wing, too close to fuel tank to weld. But old resin and heat works too. It hardens while you lay it.
