It is better to infuse against gravity
Reduces risk for dry-spots - the resin cannot just flow in-accordance to gravity
Depends on the scale of the part
Perforate your core with 1/8” holes spaced around an inch apartHelps the resin flow-through adequately through both-sides
Can use school’s CNC machine to program and cut-holes
Always perform a vacuum-drop test before starting infusions - no drop in 15 minutes
Use breather if-possible to prevent the bag from being punctured
Always add lots of pleats (6” long) to your bag so that every-crevice is covered well with the tape
including at the tubing where the Enka sits
Instead of wrapping the chromate tape around the tubing, stuff the chromate inside, poke a small-hole for the resin to go-through
Use rollers to help seal the chromate together (VERY important the seal is perfect)
Add 0.5-0.75” foam to necessary places in Aero-body where there will be cut-outs during infusion - helps keep the structure together
