I believe it is almost the same weight as aluminum per cubic inch, but it is stronger so identical strenght parts can be made thinner in CF and so the CF parts are lighter.

I do need to mention that I personally don't work for the CF shop, so my understanding of CF is basic "google&liberary" type stuff :)

I remember reading somewhere about carboncarbon foam that has high thermal cunductance, dunno if CF can be made to have good thermal properties.


If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...
