In this video I show you a simple way to use 3D prints as the inner mold for awesome carbon fibre parts.

  • Nice! I love that you encapsulated the 3d print with the fiber. I was thinking about that recently and 3d printing would be great for one off molds vs those foam plugs traditionally used for fiberglass. Not seeing a whole lot of people doing it though oddly.

  • Gaaf project, heel mooi om zo lichtgewicht carbon vleugeld te maken zonder buitenmallen. Helaas is de leading edge van de rudders niet ideaal op deze manier, de lucht laat bij een kleine hoek al los. Het dikste punt moet ongeveer op 30-40 procent koorde liggen. Dat scheelt een factor 3 weerstand en 25-50 procent meer lift. De kromming moet t scherpst zijn op de neus en geleidelijk minder worden naar achter toe.

    • @@spearhead3496 If it is such a complex airfoil shape like helicopter rotor blades for example you're better off creating a mold from the 3D printed part. Then all internal structures are laid in the mold and then filled with epoxy foam. After demolding the scructure is skinned with carbon. The only use of 3D-printed cores is with actively moving airfoils, but then the fibre alignment of the carbon calls for the application of filament tapes, but that's a whole other level of complexity than what's shown in this video.

  • Great work, I used to work with fiberglass and I find the carbon fiber so interesting. I though it was more complicate to do but there is a dub surrounding my head, once I saw in a F1 channel how the engineers construct the chassis in carbon fiber, then they put entire chassis in a kind of “chamber” so, what´s the different?, it is for the size of the piece? Thank you

  • Hello! like your work! Following comments are not intented to blame, but to help to do better, no offense: - honey comb do not have big structural resistance in this axis. It is very strong for crushing effort in the axis of the combs. Think about a cylindrical glass (to drink), in which axis will it handle the most of effort if you walk on it? In this case I think that triangle pattern would handle more effort (which is finally almost what you did with this big honeycombs ;)) - not physical but my way to do: when you flipped your making tape I already knew the result with painting. Do not overlap masking tape as possible. In that case I personnaly let the masking tape "floating" on the trailing end, then make it meet the other glued side end. More like a pinched U shape (or drop) than a O shape (coil). No overlap then and no air gap where paint loves to stain. Hope I was clear enough with my poor english ;) And I hope you considered it as an advice more than a lesson ;)

  • My understanding that a well fabricated and properly sized carbon fiber piece has similar rigidity to steel. Yet i don't see people making DIY mills, routers, lathes, drill presses with even partial carbon fiber parts. The majority of none industrial metal working machines use aluminum extrusions for most of the structure except the base and supports. I assume it's too niche and not very practical or i might have misinterpreted the specifications of the materials.
