A bit further north, so you saw more of the true Nullarbor Plain, but missed the coastline and Bunda Cliffs. I have a brother in Perth. I usually fly I'm a bit surprised by how much I enjoyed the drive, despite the long distances: "In 1,200 km, turn left".

We did take a few side trips - Eyre Peninsula, whale watching at Busselton, Augusta to Esperance, Lake Mungo ...

Awesome!

Damn..... It looks like someone has been busy!

What is the black on it?? Are you going to keep us in suspense??

 

[McPuff]

It's carbon fiber!

 

[kkiet]

Really looks awesome!!!!!!!!!

Lol, sorry, yeah its a carbon fiber inlay. I cut the sides of the mod down while it's still square, Imlay the fiber, round the corners then cut the squonk holes. The fiber is super nice, it becomes "one with the mod", it's rounded on the battery side and cut out at the squonk holes. I'm doing carbon fiber mods next. Limited batch.

I just love the feel of CF mods. They are so lightweight and sturdy.

Are you doing complete cf mod? Or just the inlay? Either way it's awesome!!

 

[Tbev]

Just the inlay, this fiber doesn't conduct so I can't do the whole thing in it.

Pre-pregnant or are you mixing resin and manually wetting?

Vacuum cure I trust.

Think Chris Reeves Sebenza pocket folders.. Sexy as hell

TBev: you did mean Green with RED right? Company colors be damned.... I already have a Kennedy 22 to go on it with a matching Gremlin cap.

I would bet yo he is epoxing pre made sheets to the aluminum and milling then sanding to shape. I would bet there is zero vacuum bag involvement. Now a fella could make a small fortune making hand wrapped carbon fiber mods with SS and or Ti inlays. Time consuming and stooopid expensive but why not? The kids can pay for their own damned college... Daddy needs carbon fiber and titanium....... Throw in a tiny Ducati or Lamborghini logo in red in the lower corner......

Why do I suddenly feel another mod coming on? The question is, is it possilble to do colors?
