By the way Tyler, did you know you don't really need an autoclave if your garage is at 134 degrees?
Hhahahahahah!! That's not making me miss Lost Wages at all. I have a few ideas for some new carbon items on my car to try and reduce weight as much as possible. Are you building one time use molds?
Mostly, I build bucks (some are actually usable fiberglass parts, some are fiberglass over wood and/or foam), then I pull gelcoated fiberglass molds off of them. The molds are reusable, but mostly specific to my car. I have a few flat panel parts that I pulled straight off of aluminum sheet that served as more-or-less a one time mold. I have the wing, splitter, diffuser, trunk interior panels, lower splash pans behind the front tires, aero-farings for the back edge of the fenderwells, and I am finishing the molds for the underbody tunnels and the belly pan. I am going to build the aero-roof out of CF and will build a third rear deck lid with only the spoiler. Of the other two, one is clean (stock fiberglass) and the other has both the spoiler and the adjustable wing.
