LOL.. thanks for your advice.. Even if I have one it would be a waste, I wouldn't know what else I can use it for, unlike a air compressor with it's diverse applications.
Speaking of which I know there are adaptors which I can convert into a vaccum pump, but the effeciveness of them are doubtful.
as you said the products has no structual puropses so no real need for one anyways.
Those mirrors look great - certainly looks like you've perfected the process.
Where did you source the carbon from? I was trying to buy some a few months ago for a couple of projects but couldn't find a reasonable Australian supplier. I'd certainly appreciate the contact details of our source if possible.
look up your yellow pages and look under fiberglass supplier.
You may also try any marine repair shops, PM me if you can't locate them, I am sure my supplier can ship.
Alernatively, make friends with someone who works for hawker dehavilland in bankstown. ;)
We've managed to build an entire solar car from their throwouts.. Except it's harder than you think, because it's all pre-preg, which is a different manufacturing technique.
By the sounds of you you have relations to engineering ... Would you happen to have one ?? :biggrin:
Relations to engineering.. Yes. Relations to Hawker Dehavilland.. not close enough to bludge carbon (except on sponsorship- that's how we got it for the solar car).. Possibility of getting some carbon.. small..
Apologies if i got your hopes up.. That was my old life..
did a bit of touch up work today... Now it's got more radiance.
