got any pictures?

you're going to have a hard time doing it in just epoxy. your best chance is to get some real high density filler. cabosil isn't going to be good enough. West system makes a high density filler which should be good enough. Another thing you can try is wrapping the bolt in glass or carbon strands. Wa...

The tips are right but the camber dissapears. The mold has 10 mm of camber but both skis have come out with flat bottoms. We are doing thind...

We've found it works well if you wet the carbon first then use a roller to put a film of epoxy on the honeycomb. Then laying it up with either perforated plastic or peal ply in a vacu...

I build small high tech sail boats, and have done quite a bit with nomex and foam cores. Thinking about making a couple skis and while definitely planning on starting with the basic stuff I was just wondering how experimental people have gotten with cores. Honeycomb presents the obvious construction...
