richiewayne Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Hi everyone. My name is Richie and I’ve been in the composites industry professionally for the past 12yrs. I’ve worked in both Aerospace and Marine, from phenolic prepregs to polyesters, honeycomb core to foam core, gelcoat to paint, part design, mold design, etc. With all that, I’m just now starting to build my own garage set up and build some hobby composites. I’m looking forward to getting some ideas from everyone and helping I’m with yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richiewayne Posted November 2 Author Share Posted November 2 I am fascinated with some of the cosmetic carbon fiber weaves and am looking to work on some projects that combine other functionality for a dramatic design. Much like the Pokeball video posted in the Cool Carbon Fiber Things thread. I don’t have an immediate project, but am going through ideas in my head.
