Design, Manufacture and Machining of Carbon composites for RC planes
Once final in design the mold incorporates the slots directly. I usually machine bosses to be used in the mold. I also like the first layer of fabric to be slightly too big in the slot area... the boss so as it curves into the recess or radius of the boss/ mold. Subsequent layers lying within...- British Menac
