building a composite fus

[dusty IV]

The May issue of Model Aviation has an article by Darwin Barrie on building a composite fus. p 132. Very interesting for a MA article.

Any body here read it?

I cut my fuselages on a vertical foam cutter I made and then fiberglass them. I hate the fiberglass bit. They mentioned the use of a carbon sock which I have read about but never used. Is this an easier method?

Hi Dusty IV

Here you can see an example of how to use it

This kind of carbon sock can be found at www.r-g.de

Thanks for this link Rafael! :D

I'd lost it, and have been looking for some time. Do you know anything about their availability?

Sam,
who is running low on carbon.
