This is exactly the kind of methodology I was hoping to see. An outer beauty panel with an inner structural panel bonded to it that recreates the kind of skeletonized raised support structure that companies make with stamped steel in order to use tensegrity to add additional rigidity and support to the panels. Those molds are beautifully made and the gel-coat in flawless. I appreciate your efforts to really work the carbon into the creases and contours of the mold with the spray adhesive to ensure that you have enough material packed in there for the vacuum bag to work with. Beautifully done, this should result in an inordinately strong part that weighs considerably less than the original despite being an order of magnitude stronger.

One tip to avoid a sanding operation. Remove your parts from the mold, do your trimming and hole cutting, then remove the peel ply when you're ready to bond the parts together. That should leave you with a good surface for bonding without having to sand. That's how we build airplanes out of composites. You only need to sand if you remove the peel ply too early and let it get contaminated.
@tombeasley1943
Жыл бұрын
There are two types of Peel Ply in the industry. If you use the type for bonding then the surface finish is rough. I would imagine he's using the type that leaves a very smooth finish. Thus the need to sand before bonding. He's been around the block on making parts, so I am sure he knows what he's doing.

Question: Why follow the internal ribs and contours of the original sheet metal part? They're there to add rigidity while conforming to the limitations of press machines and welding requirements. Why replicate those exact shapes on a one-off hand-made part? Any external surface must be the exact shape for obvious reasons (Originality and/or aesthetics). Only the mating internal surfaces need to follow the original design... Painstakingly re-creating the internal surface structure seems redundant. Any thoughts?

That's all.. sorry sir for too many question asking Your answer will help me a lot.. Keep up the great work u do sir :)

Is there a reason why you dont leave the outer skin in the mold, glue in the underside (potentually you can use vaccum bagfor clamping) and only than take it out ? Interested to learn as that is how we did large assemblies in marine production to make sure the outer skin doesnt deform. Beautiful work by the way. A pleasure looking at someone doing such clean work.
