A good start

Well at the moment we have worked out the shape around the riders legs etc,
and I have found some lines to work on for the design.

Great success

Yesterday we de-moulded the rear part for the RVF400 racer, all looked very good.

Busy times

Lots of things going on in the workshop at the moment, fun though.

Flange

Making the flange before mold construction will start next week.

Knitting needles

My girlfriend is a knitting junkie and I made these 28mm diam carbon needles as a present to her.
The end-caps have threads, in carbon, so the needles also serve as storage for smaller needles.

update

Just a small update on one of the clay bikes,
doing some ruff work on the tail-part to find a basic shape.

One more

One more pic of the fuel tank part, the basic shape is set but some changes will come.

Out of shape

I have been feeling out of shape for a while, literally.
But now shapes are flowing from my hands again.

Minishield

I made a brake disc sheild for my mates minimoto,
a little bit dry in places but under 20 grams.

Finally

I have clay under my fingernails again, yes!

and here it is..

after a couple of posts lacking info on what I was doing here it is,
throttle bodies made entirely from carbon fiber that my mate and me did,
this is a first prototype and changes will be made.
I think this is the second all carbon throttle bodies ever made,
Britten was first.

Helmets

The helmets are done, turned out quite good.

?

Helmet paint

Strange, I have painted a lot of things but never a helmet,
might as well do two then..

what?

and just what might this be ??
