LOSI LST XXL Conversion ideas

[Chadworkz]

If I need to trace a paper or cardboard shape, I lay wide masking tape on the CF, covering it completely in the area I will be working, and trace onto the tape...then cut it out in my various methods.

Also, every custom CF part on my Revo that I made is made out of 2mm 3k weave.

Yes, just because graphite-girl doesn't have it listed, that doesn't mean they don't have it, and calling them is a good idea (I do it all the time...tell the Chadworkz sent ya). Like I said, they manufacture ALL of their sheets, so they have a huge stock.

1k weave will work fine, as long as the part doesn't have to sustain or support a load, but 3k weave is perfect for structural parts. Anything higher than 3k weave is expensive and overkill, really, so...

The larger the mesh looks, the lower the weave number. If the weave is very tiny, and you can barely see the fibers, that's a high-number weave.
