    Is there a reason to use vac instead of just pressurizing a bladder inside the mould?

    this is the first time seeing your videos. I was designing composite parts in F1 for over 3 yrs of my 6yr stint and this offers the exact concepts and processes used in high level motorsport. Very nice.

    You guys have brought my DIY hobbies to a whole new level. Thank you!
  • @Highoctane06
    As someone who is completely new to all of this I just wanted to say you are by far the best information source I've come across!
  • @daltanionwaves
    There's a great deal of DIY composite videos on YouTube that often look like epoxy castings with a little bit of fiber in them... So we really appreciate what you guys are doing at Easy Comp, representing proper structural layup, in concise and useful little tutorials with slick production. Quality 🏆

    Your workspace is always so incredibly clean and organized... I would love to have a workspace like that!
  • @deadmantwen
    Idk why I'm watching these, I'll probably never make anything, but I find them to be incredibly intriguing.

    Carbon fibre is a life saver
  • @neonnerd1364
    After watching this I feel like my car needs a carbon intake tube.
  • You guys have the best carbon fiber tutorials. Thank you for all that you do. Can’t wait for the next one!
  • Most advanced material. Oldest type of mold, used for many materials and applications. Gotta love it! Thanks so much for sharing!
  • @omegaelixir
    Why these carbon videos seem more satisfying than satisfying videos in general I don't know.

    So THAT'S how those those bike frames are made. Thank you for the tutorial 🙂
