DIY Carbon fibre parts

1) safety first!- Epoxy/ polyester resin is horrible stuff!-can cause brain damage if fumes are inhaled! work outside or with a respirator on. when cutting carbon fibre panels do not inhale dust- harmful to lungs. 2)- Materials required. Carbon fibre cloth 200/ 300 gm/ m2, polyester/ epoxy resin, gloves, measuring cups/ pipettes, release wax/ polythene sheet, glass panels/ wooden plates, something heavy.
3)- basic idea of wet lay composite fibre sheet construction is to lay the bottom board with a layer of canuba wax/ polythene sheet then a layer of resin, then a layer of (fully resin saturated, no air) fibre, then a layer of resin, then a layer of fibre and repeat and finally a final layer of resin sandwiched between 2 boards (plythene sheet/ wax as release agent as final layers) with something heavy added to compress it all into a sheet.
4)- Resin should have as few air bubbles in as possible, as this will weaken the final panel. Leave the panel to cure for a day or so at least in warm temperature. You need a dremel or a hacksaw to cut the stuff, watch out for the dust, its nasty stuff!- wear gloves as carbon fibre dust/ particles are very irratable.
Good luck!
