Your almost there on so much of what you are doing. Hope the following helps:
- watch the boheme video's for a different approach to attaching the edges
- pull back of the depth of the rebate, you'll get a clean finish on the base
- bonding UHMWPE: define grit level, use MAPP gas, bond per Boheme method or within then press before it is used
- exclude wood with knots, the bond is weak and or results in an over concentration of epoxy
- modify the approach you are taking with the core, 'Montucky styleeeee', if you luv wood, drilling the core is just like stabbing yourself in the heart
- CF needs to be straight - its worth thinking about how it call be held in tension before the cassette is closed - you don't need to send to all the way to the tips.
- Make sure you fibre is super dry before it is used - over night in the airing cupboard is a good idea in this instance. You will need to consider how you work this epoxy into the fibre or elevate the temperature you are working at. You might have a problem with compatibility - so speak to your suppliers. Once the fibre is correctly saturated, then pressure will only affect the fibre ratio.
Good luck
