Yeppers....:)

As a fellow aviator I indeed have. Not from a composite standpoint, but as a fellow aviator it is always crazy fun to see and admire the engineering mind of this Utah Flyer. Our flying realms are vastly different but seeing and following Draco was so impressive. Cant wait for 2.0. He has the...

Thank you. You are quite welcome. I am happy to help making this an easier and less complicated process.

When I started it just planned on showing how to make the panels, but as the whole build is now in here, I changed the title of the threat to better illustrate that.

As promised earlier, I might as well introduce these to the world..... Made about 14 years ago for a SUV we had at the time to hold my bike racks. We sold the SUV shortly after making them, and I thought this would be a great purpose for them. Perfect fit too. They are made from my same...

Holes re-drilled in the Thixotropic. Masked and then sanded..... Make sure you get through the top coat and down to the carbon. This is verified by the carbon reveling itself like in the pictures Then as there ,ight be a bit of torque on this handle I decided to dive in the Scrap...

Well.... I sure like the second handle better than the first one. The first would fit perrrrrrfect on a 70's hippie bus, groovy and curvy and all...... The new one belongs on a Paaaaaanzer. Old one..... New one..... Holes drilled and countersunk for a quad of M4 Stainless bolts. Now...

I know what you are going through as I spent almost 30 years in El Paso TX before we moved to Colorado in 2014. Ruidoso was frequented by us and many great weekends were spent there...... We went west as the Sacramento and other rivers began drying up sadly and into the Gila and further north we...

Thank you. Its coming. I just haven't decided which one.... :)

I really dig the shape of this handle. After 220 dry, 600, 1200 and 2000 wet sanding. On the truck. This will work. This piece is now ready for top clear coat and then will be bonded to the door.

Out of the mold.... Rough cut and sanded.... Cut into shape and off course it needed a roof..... Another 10 layers of 5.7oz with MAX HTE. Sat the first piece down on it to bond the old with the new..... Cut and sanded in to rough shape...... This piece fist aesthetically...

Mechanical degassing with a heat lamp. Please make sure you read the description underneath the vide as you can create a thermal runaway real fast by doing this.

Another handle is being created as the first one depicted above was to curvy....... Hmmmmmm..... :unsure: A new mold was created..... 10 layers of 5.7 oz 2x2 twill and using the MAX Bond HTE which requires a post heat cure. Clamped together now curing @300 deg F for 1 hr. Now curing

Sorry it took a while. Been busy with other things. Short video of the CF box.
