750ss Cafe Racer seat unit
 

Just got the fibreglass kit

Gonna make me a seat unit

Should be fun!!

Plenty of ventilation required

Update 21 Dec 2011
 

So, I bought some florist foam, made a base and stuck the foam onto the board, making sure it was plenty big enough

The foam is very easy to cut and sand with the final shap looking like this:



My tank was at the powdercoaters at this time so I had to stop until I could see that they worked together



Next job is some fibreglassing

you're giving me ideas......

Ha ha:lol: :lol: :lol: gotcha

What are you thinking of?

similar for my race bike. Something very light, small and very light...did I mention light?! :lol:

Have you got the FG kit yet? The Carbon kits look good and not huge amounts more cost, and process looks the same. Youtube 'make carbon'

As light as an Egg Shell ------------------CRACK :p

Yes, and I have done the seat so I will post pictures soon

Regards

Just had a look at some carbon fiber making videos

That looks easy

We should have filmed ourselves making pre preg CF bits in my mates Barn back in the mid 90s, using an old electric oven that had been extended with some steel sheet and a Edwards Rotary Vac pump
Best bit to come out of it was a complete CF subframe come seat unit for my mates original Fireblade.
