Scratch Build – In Progress carboFlow - headphones/case (13.11)

Well I'm not sure about all the safety gear I just use onetime use gloves, safety glasses and sometimes a respirator. A good respirator cost something around 40-50 quid. And I don't think you have to worry about fibers working its way through your skin, yes you can get a few splinter. So yea your a bit overly worried.

A big thanks to crucial



The other fins

Simply wow buddy!! That look awesome it kinda reminds me of alien! Mod on buddy!

 

This thing is really starting to look amazing!

It's something very different, and I love it!

Keep it up!

 

Seeing this fine show of awesomeness & just loving the fact it will be strong & unique superb looking form I'll have to stop being a wuss & try CF some day , brilliant stuff wolfie .
Congrats on the RAM sponsor too .

 

Looks friggin' awesome, if there was to be a lovechild between the aforementioned Alien and the most recent Batmobile, this may well be a scaled down version of it. And love them Ballistix.

 

Great job on all shapes, keep going.

So first the awesome news I recently offically graduated from school

Now the bad news I made a really big mistake I cut to much off of the middle plate. So because I didn't want to waste it a made a additional 2. These are going to be cut down the middle and arranged like in the pic bellow.

very very rough cut


some cabling not sure what to call this



wolfie

 

Huge mistake

 

well, now you need to turn that mistake in an even better project
good luck with that.
nice cable management you got there

 

that cooler looks like it might suffer a little and hey we all make mistakes sure you'll manage to get something done for it. Congratz on graduating! now to face the scary world lol

 

You HAVE to put some light between those "fins" - looks awesome!

 

Bad news but what your doing to convert it from a muckup into an even more interesting cool form so not so bad really congrats for graduating also mate .

 

Hi, well currently I'm in the US, LA/LV. On a sad note I"m not 21 so i can't drink or gamble, not that i would but its nice to have the option
On the bright side I was able to pick up my psyko headphones. I'd like to give a big thanks to PSYKO and an even bigger thanks to Locke who made sure they got to me

The type of pics I've been making in las vegas

any update? its been 2 months?

oh and are you using epoxy or poly resin? Be careful with the resin, letting is cure inside the house can kill you.


A note on mold making. Get on carbonmods.com and buy their mold making kit. Then make your part you want to make out of foam, paint it, then pull a female mold off of it using their kit. The tooling gel coat in their kit is easy to work with, easy to fix imperfections, and will give you great looking finish without a lot of work. Not to mention it creats a LOT less work having to repatir your mold for a second part and all your parts will be exactly the same. As will any other part you pull from it in the tuture.

 

Thanks for the advice, I'm using epoxy.

The update part: I as you may know I recently graduated and because of that I fulfilled the requirements at the school I graduated at. I can do a year college prep at the same school to basically get a better graduation (think of it as a upgrade). At the moment I am swamped with school and other stuff like looking for a job for when I'm done. I want to bring out a update next week and hopefully be done by December or sooner so keep your fingers crossed.

Hope you like it
