To make a mold for the carbon fiber half mask, a 3d printed part is smoothed using epoxy resin & glass microspheres. The part is then embedding in clay on flange material and coated with a thick layer of fiberglass to create a sturdy mold. The final carbon fiber mask is then cast in forged carbon fiber fabric, coated with additional cosmetic resin and trimmed to shape. ▶▶▶ Supplies◀◀◀ Forged Carbon Fiber Fabric: https://ulticarbon.com/products/ https://www.etsy.com/shop/ULTICARBON Pro Marine Table Top Epoxy Resin: https://amzn.to/3hK1M4Y Deep Set Epoxy: https://compositeenvisions.com/deep-set-epoxy-river-table-thick-casting-epoxy-resin-hardener-kit/ Glass Microspheres USA: https://amzn.to/2EQPbP2 CA: https://amzn.to/2YM6Caz Chavant Clay: https://amzn.to/3aOkrsw Mold Release Wax: https://amzn.to/2YOSai8 PVA Mold Release: https://amzn.to/3yhWmGu Mini Heat Gun: https://amzn.to/2EQ7C3e Perma-Grit Sanding Block USA: https://amzn.to/3yi99bI UK: https://amzn.to/33MdWTg Perma-Grit Cutting Wheel: https://amzn.to/3dL3MKl Dremel Flex Shaft: https://amzn.to/2ElU5O5 Dremel Rotary Tool: https://amzn.to/2IxD4CZ ······················································· The above links include Amazon affiliate links.

Forming a Ford logo car badge using a sheet of forged carbon fiber fabric, epoxy resin and a 3D printed mold. The first casting was challenging to remove due to some slight undercuts in the mold and the very thin single layer part. It also had some gaps and thin spots which were filled and reinforced by adding small patches of additional carbon fiber to the back. The mold was revised for the second casting and a backing layer of twill weave carbon fiber added over the forged sheet, making the second part easy to remove and gap free. The quick prototype mold was modeled in Fusion 360, 3D printed and minimally post-processed. Better designed and finished tooling would produce higher quality results straight from the mold. ▶▶▶ Supplies◀◀◀ Forged Carbon Fiber Website: https://ulticarbon.com Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ULTICARBON Mold 3D Model (free): https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-111558 Laminating Resin & Vacuum Bagging Supplies http://acpcomposites.com/ Pro Marine Supply Epoxy Coating Resin: https://amzn.to/2K30N2C PVA Mold Release: https://amzn.to/3yhWmGu Preppin' Weapon Sanding Block USA: https://amzn.to/2DJck24 CA: https://amzn.to/2OMQHnL Automotive Enamel Gloss: https://amzn.to/2uouJzW Recorded on Canon Powershot G7X USA: http://amzn.to/2oqPTEu CA: https://amzn.to/2WlHc4d Zoom H1 Recorder: http://amzn.to/2oLSvyQ Giant Squid Audio Lab Mic: http://amzn.to/2oTtbZy Lighting Kit: https://amzn.to/3x7Mu1K ······················································· The above links include Amazon affiliate links.

What's the best way to prevent carbon fiber fabric from unraveling and becoming deformed? Add a stabilizer to hold the weave in place during cutting and lamination. In this video we're testing Pro Finish and Web-Lock from Composite Envisions and comparing this to carbon fiber fabric treated with spray adhesive. (Note - Pro Finish is no longer offered by Composite Envisions.) ▶▶▶ Supplies◀◀◀ Rotary Cutting Set USA: https://amzn.to/2uau81m CA: https://amzn.to/2EU15ER Web-Lock Carbon Fiber: https://compositeenvisions.com/carbon-fiber-fabric-2x2-twill-3k-50-127cm-6oz-203-43gsm-toray-t-300-with-web-lock-stabilization/ Auto Vac System: https://store.acpsales.com/products/2303/auto-vac-system Recorded on Canon Powershot G7X USA: http://amzn.to/2oqPTEu CA: https://amzn.to/2WlHc4d Zoom H1 Recorder: http://amzn.to/2oLSvyQ Giant Squid Audio Lab Mic: http://amzn.to/2oTtbZy Lighting Kit: https://amzn.to/3x7Mu1K ······················································· The above links include Amazon affiliate links.
