This is the most thorough carbon fiber cutting video on the net.

The fact that these guys are still recording for us such professional videos in 2021 confirms that the safety advices work :) Thanks!

I work an an engineer on carbon fibre aircraft and would like to recommend the cutting tool I prefer to se to work on the aircraft. I use a Fein multimaster oscillating cutting tool with a bonded diamond blade. Cuts beautifully and you can cut very close to finished size. Bonus is it can be used for finishing too.

Thanks for all the feedback people; it makes us want to keep producing these videos. We have something very exciting in the pipeline now (another big 'project' similar to the bonnet/hood) which I think will really inspire people. Lots of filming and editting to do yet but stay tuned in....

Thanks David; it's a great product, you'll get on really well with it. Of course we're all here if you have any questions or problems.

This helped a lot! I'm planning on cutting down the carbon fibre sideguards from my current wheelchair to use on my new one when it comes to match my wheel profile. I wanted to make sure I wouldn't ruin them and this video answered all of the questions I had!

Thank you so much for this video! Spent hours looking at all these other videos without any answers, only to serendipitously click on this video and have all the answers laid out right in front of me. Thank you so much!

best instructional on the web!! all the answers in one video great job!!

I love the videos you guys put together. By far the most informative, and best production quality.

Answered all my questions. Thank you for a well presented clear video

Very useful video. Covered everything I need to know. Thank you

Such a great detailed visually demonstrated video!! For a kinesthetic and visual learner that I am, this was exactly the information and type of video I was looking for before starting on my carbon fiber project, Thank you so much for the awesome video!!

Excellent video catering for the hobbyist and low output workshop. Perfect for my needs

Extremely well made. I know everything I need too now so Thank you

Great video! it answered all my questions and it was very informative, good job!

There will be a new laminating video coming soon and also a new skinning video (they are two different processes). We've learned a lot over the years, not to mention increased the production values for our videos so replacement videos for skinning and laminating are overdue :)

absolutely amazing video, thank you for making this!

Thanks! - We can ship to Puerto Rico and for any none-dangerous items shipping is quick and quite reasonable. For dangerous-goods (like resins) it can get a bit complicated and more expensive but most things are possible if there's something you need to source from us. Perma-Grit tools and carbon fibre sheet/tubes etc we can certainly send to you, no problem.

Absolutely fantastic! Thanks so much for taking the time to share this info!

This is the most informative and helpful video I’ve ever watched. THANK YOU

Great information on how to do multiple different types of cutting carbon. Thx for your tips sir.

Very informative, thanks for taking the time to make and for sharing this

Thank you for such professional video!

Thank you for this video. Great comprehensive tutorial!

this is a critically important videos. i think a lot of people start working with carbon fiber thinking it's as safe as arts & crafts and it's really not

great advice,have had to discover most of this for myself by doing it (for 1/10th R/C car parts) but good to see how the professionals do it-thanks!

Just what I needed to know. Thanks for this and the other great vids!

Great instructional video. Much appreciated!

Thanks for such a detailed video, answered all of my questions

Very good video. Thorough and gave easy techniques for various carbon fiber materials.

Thanks very much for an informative, interesting and thorough tutorial. I can finally cut my carbon fiber using my rotary tool and hand saws with confidence.

That is a great demonstration, and very informative. Well done. And to the aircraft engineer mentioning the Fein oscillating diamond cutter. Thanks to the both of you.

Thanks. I'm handmaking a guitar with Rick Toone style carbon plates holding the wooden pieces together (mainly because I don't want to spend 15 thousand dollars on a real RT guitar) and this helped me with my game plan a lot...I don't have a proper workshop and most of my hand crafted guitars have been done with hand tools, but I've never worked with carbon fibre before so I was a little concerned going into it. Not anymore though :)

Excellent video! You answered a number of questions that I had. Will proceed to your website. Thanks.

tons of great information in this video, thank you

great info as usual guys. I just received my easylease today and can't wait to try it!

that was outstanding - wow! thank you so much for this 30min video. very very cool

I think it's always a good idea to use skin protection creme to avoid any skin irritation. The dust will come off easier or does it interfere with the cut surface, by which I mean damaging the laminate with chemicals.

Just the video I wanted, great info 👍🏼

Perfect video, just what I was looking for! Thanks for making it.

It's the new Dremel Fortiflex. They used to be called Motorflexes which were amazing until they stopped making them but the good news is they releaunched it, called the Motorflex. Worth every penny (and you can get all replacement spare parts if you use it a lot like we do).

Exactly what I needed thanks a lot

Great video, helped me a lot! Thanks for that!

Extremely helpful video, thank you. Now I need to order the permagrit kit!

Thank you for sharing this video. A great video.

Excellent video!

Thoroughly excellent video.

Best video about CF ever! Thank you!

Fantastic Tutorial! Thanks!

thank you for your video. Very helpful.

Excellent video! Thank you! 👍👍❤❤

Great video Thankyou for this . Material on the way for a small project - this has been brilliant thanks 😊

thank you for great presentation

Great video! Thanks

Work through the grits with wet and dry paper. Taking care to remove the scratches from the previous paper. Change the water with each move up the grits to ensure no grit from the previous paper contaminates your part. once you have worked upto 1500 grit, you should be able to polish the part by hand with a polishing compound or by machine, to get a final gloss.

I learned everything I needed to from this one video. Thank you!

Brilliant video guys. Can't wait for the next one. (happy customer)

amazing tut.! please make a how to for carbon fiber tubes!! thanks for this tutorials! i´ve learned a lot!

Myths busted, This has been very helpful. Thanks.

Thanks so much for sharing your expertise in cutting Carbon Fiber, a superb tutorial !!

Great work guys thank much!!!

Thank you - excellent and useful information, clearly presented!

This video it’s absolutely fantastic! Impressive, really! Thanks for your help! 👍

Awesome video. Thanks for making these

Thank you so much for your advice~ Thank you.

Thank you! You just saved me a ton of money having to pay for custom work on a relatively simple project!

Brilliant video and information, all the concerns I had, have been covered! Top Class!! :) ....Thank You ...

Best video I've seen yet on how to work on carbon. I image that piece of high density foam isn't cheap?

I was worried I might be getting in over my head without CNC milling capability, this video showed me that carbon fiber is probably easier to work with than metal with the tools I have, excellent.

very well presented. thank you

Thanks for sharing excellent recommendations

Good video but GREAT index on the side. Easy to skip the safety stuff (j/k)

Great quality video very clear and covered everything very helpful cheers

Very nice video, as usual! I have a question for you: what model is the dremel you use?

Wow. I’m great full to you for this video. Now I have to source some prepreg sheet!

Fantastic ...thanks!

that was brilliant

I have learned so much from these videos!

Great, thank you for the education

Excellent, thank you!

Awesome video! thanks a lot :D

I use a bandsaw, oscilating spindle sander, and a tile cutting saw with a diamond blade to cut and shape parts. If you want to use a bandsaw I would recommend calling Lenox blades and have them recommend a blade for your specific application.

Great share, nicely done. Seems I'd want to take the CF dust control to a higher level. The good respirator - I totally agree. But I would seal eye areas because dust gets right into eye fluids. Then, use a shop vac seems bad if CF dust goes through filter and then shot into room's atmosphere. What to do with dust that is collected? Seems to be like nuclear waste, it will always be with us. Dump it out back where it gets into the watershed? I am cautious about this stuff - seems easy to have an incident you won't realize until well down the road when the equivalent of mesothelioma kicks in. There was a lot of loose dust sitting on the foam board after you post-processed the items, to deal with.

I wanted to know a little about cutting and finishing a sheet of carbon fiber. I'd say this video was pretty on point.

well done video, thanks!

Very useful instructions with rich content.. Please do keep them coming!

You guys are the best.

great job man

Very informative video and helped a lot, thanks! What would you suggest is the best/cleanest way to countersink holes in CF? And are there any bits you could suggest? Thanks!

Great info, thanks for this.

Can you foresee any issues using a high speed router with a small bit (3-4 mm) to cut a hole in a sheet? I need to retain both pieces (cutting out a door).

Great video. Extremely helpful. One question though, where can I get/order a foam block like this one? Of that size?

Yery good explanations.

Thank you I am building a case for my ham radio and want a carbon fiber face plate this helped alot👍👍👍👍

OMG - what is a clear, concise, well-edited and thoroughly professional instructive video doing on the same KZfaq we know for hillbilly gasoline substitutes and lizard people warning about the pending collapse of the economic system?

thank you for this information!!!

Wow vas a ser mi profesor de ahora en adelante

Just love your work Explaining all the way Well done Must watch all YOUR videos 📹 😉

Amazing video!! Thank you

Thanks a lot!!!
