OK... well there's a handful of the available inlays. There is a downloadable folder linked at the beginning of this mess, you can click that to open all of the pictures . If you want a Seamless mod with an inlay shoot me a pm or an email. Current wait time is about three weeks.

I would bet there is zero vacuum bag involvement.

I'd prefer a vacuum bagged heat cure to direct bond to the metal.

But even gluing a curred sheet I'd want a vacuum to prevent bubbles.

I did some repairs without vacuum (pre cured patches) and with vacuum (pre-cured, pre-preg, and wet layup) and the vacuum looked better in all cases (as well as stronger, but that's not an issue here).

I don't even like fiberglass w/o vacuum now.


As for a hand wrapped CF mod, wrapping a metal tube and other bits for conductivity/strength (composites are often brittle and don't like fasteners) sounds quite doable.

I wish I had an oven to cure one. The vacuum part is easy enough.

And like so many things, cost of material for a one off is high because of minimum quantities. But amortizesd over a few dozen it's not bad.

I looked for pre-preg CF sheets a year or so back. Just wanted a few to play with. But I'd have to buy dozens.

Same with cloth and resin. Couldn't get just a few yards and the resin only came in quantities 20x what I wanted.

Do it.... Build it, they will come. I started drilling clones I ordered from Fasttech 5 at a time. Don't underestimate the market. Toaster ovens are cheap, knowledge is expensive. Build it, they will come.

Really dig that jade.

If you want it you got it. I'll do seamless mods with any inlays for $400.00, any orders made before Veterans Day.

Here's the other option for carbon mods, if you want carbon and color. Best feeling mod in hand I've ever held

Oh my.. Tom you've been busy!

Hey Tom,

I would know if you've did some voltage drop test on the seemless mod ?
I would be interested about differences between the aluminium one vs the copper one and between the dual 18650 vs the single 18650.
If you have the time / gear to check this it would be awesome.

Thank you.
