- Hey everyone!
I made the Ducati Panigale 1199 splash guard out of prepreg carbon fiber from start to finish.
With this technique you can make most parts.
Thanks for watching! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
PREPREG WITHOUT AUTOCLAVE IS THE PERFECT BEGINNER IDEA!!
comparing your tradegy mold to your skills result is 10. congratulation.
Amazing work! Dream superbike Ducati 1199 r tricalore!
would really love to see a video about your oven build if you have time !
Nice dude! Can you please make a vid on your oven??
I'm a DYI guy myself but I wouldn't take on such a project you show in your videos, I'm very impressed with your work, nice details. It almost make me what to try a project of my own, you make it look easy. Do you contract and part for customers?
I built a full carbon Panigale some ten years ago! Carbon frame, carbon rims, carbon subframe even carbon brakes! Nice job man
Thanks man
I would like to have something similar one day.
Carbon frame? Like a cover for the frame or the actual structure of the bike out of carbon?
@@TheG60528XiJinPing Entire bike from carbon! Main frame is carbon, rear subframe is carbon, fueltank is carbon, wheels are carbon etc
@@MaciusSzwed Are you Max Biaggi the ex motoGP racer?!
@@chiboy002 blasted
Fantastic job. 👍🏾 That does definitely take both time and commitment.
Thanks! It dose take a long time for sure 🛠🤟
What is your temperature controller for this oven?
Very good video, nice work. Better to wear nitrile gloves when applying the release agent and handling the prepreg material.
Hey,
Thanks for the shout out on the gloves. Appreciate your feedback!
Question about the pump.. is it the same pump they use for HVAC
Magnifique
Thanks so much!!!
Why do you vacuum inside of the oven?
Like !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are those white sheets PVC? Amazing job!
Thanks so much for the compliment!
They are polyurethane sheets.
@@zrcarbon9937 , all right! Thanks!
Any reason you have used xc130 auto clave prepreg instead of xc110 out of auto clave?
Hey!
I found it easier to work with
@@zrcarbon9937 cool, notice any difference in surface finish?
I achieved better surface finish when I use both prepreg.
Any way you can show us how you made your box you stick the parts in? Been looking for that type of video and I can't seem to find anything on how to build one I have think that would be a very wanted video! 😉
this would be something id also be very interested in, nice videos
is it one layer or two layers of gel coat ? also i am assuming you post cure the mold before use ? So you debulk all the time, that might be the secret for the pin hole free finish :D got you !"
I done one thick layer of gel coat. Yes I have post cured my mold. Debulking is very important. Thanks 👍
what material do you use for molding, I think it's like clay

Got any more infomation on your oven? Great work btw
Thanks so much. I’m planning to build a new oven, better oven. Will be recording the whole process. 🤟🛠
@@zrcarbon9937 can't wait !
@@zrcarbon9937 Any updates on the new oven? Have been loving going through and watching your videos!
Hey man!
Unfortunately not ready yet to build a new oven and make a video. Sorry for that. I can only suggest this video for you. I have similar setup. czcams.com/video/XG66eRjiAz4/video.html
I hope it will help for you.
🛠🏍🤟
Hi i would like to ask.. what is the temperature you use to ?
Hey!
The temperature is 4h 100c than 1h 120c
Not more than 3C temperature increase every minute.
Keren Bro sayang di indonesia susah bahannya klo ada saya bikin juga deh
Hei
Terima kasih banyak!
Saya turut berduka mendengarnya.
Suatu hari Anda akan melakukan hal yang sama!
How did you build your oven?👌
I’m actually going to rebuild my oven. Will get a video done of the process. Cheers 🤘
at 10:22, what is the second valve attached to?
I was just baking a different part at the same time
Do you make carbon for customers?
Yes I do! Drop me an email at zrc.works@gmail.com and let me know what you’re interested in
what is that grey material you made a mold off
Hey
I used high temp gelcoat
and high temp moulding paste
@@zrcarbon9937 Thanks!
But what is with the other side of the carbon?
That side staying as it is. That side is not seen and no point to have perfect finish on it. Just like the fairings. Only one side is looking good.
please, i need view your diy oven, i thinking make one.
Hey!
Hey 👋
My oven is a very basic composite oven. Heating element,fan and PID controller.
I’ll be making a new oven soon and I will record everything. Watch out for that video. Tanks for watching. 🤟
@@zrcarbon9937 please, what is your PID controller?

@@zrcarbon9937 hi there, first off congratulations, great results!
I as many others am interested in the curing oven. Have already built an insulated wooden box with rockwool panels and aluminium wrapping.
As for the PID controller, I’ve looked around and found what you have on your eBay link, but was wondering whether these can actually ramp heat?
It seems they just maintain a set temperature, so do how do you ramp the heating for postcuring the EL160?
I’m guessing you just keep the heating at a certain temperature for the required time, then increase manually to the next temperature? Not ideal as you’ve got to go back to the workshop every two hours or so (if I remember correctly the EL160 needs the temperature to be raised every two hours right)?
Oh it’d be nice to just buy the Easycomposite curing oven eh? At 3000€ it’s just out of my budget :-(
no resin ?
Hey
I used prepreg carbon fibre
The carbon fibre is pre pregnated with resin. It is stored in freezer under-18C to slow down the curing process. 🛠️🤘
I didn’t See the resin in the process
Hey
I used prepreg carbon fibre. The carbon fibre is already pregnated with resin.
🛠️🤘
😂 - 30 gr... Good job
Savage weight saving!!! 🛠️🤘
This is way too complicated
-30 gr...wow 😅 dude....
Yeah not much. Tell me about it 😆
Not easy reducing the weight of an all ready light plastic piece
@@zrcarbon9937 absolutely ! I meant weight ,in this case, is not the discriminatory variant: carbon still remains more mechanically resistant than the oem plastics ...adding to the wow factor 🤟
