Here comes the exciting part of the building process:
After laying four dry layers of carbon fabric on the mold, we started the timer and the mixing of epoxy resin.

All layers are throughly wet out and the wet laminate is covered in perforated film and absorber material before closing the vacuum film.

We applied the vacuum for approximately 12 hours and let the composite cure for another 36 hours afterwards.
