Description: Further information and links ▼ In this tutorial we show how to hand laminate a simple carbon fibre component (a frame protector) using the epoxy composite mould we made in a previous tutorial and the Easy Composites Carbon Fibre Laminating Starter Kit. We then demonstrate how to vacuum bag the component using professional vacuum bagging equipment and materials and also an alternative method using little more than a vacuum cleaner and a vacuum storage bag to produce a high quality carbon fibre part.
