Too Hott not to post a picture of....

very VERY painful.

i think hes going to put a birdfeeder on the end of it.

stripper pole you dumb fucks

that was my first thought… but even the almighty Josh wouldn’t waste that much CF on a spud gun. That’s some thick CF.

mmmmm thick pipe

heh… winnaR

There have been a few race cars that tried CF space frames (not monocoque). Do you build the tube or buy it? Details man!

PS I still have your sleeping bag :touchy:

i soooo know what i would use that shit for …

i could cut a 100 pounds out of the 240 if i had one of them …

siiiqqqq

since the ‘cool’ thing to do is reference a can:

O.D. is 3"
I.D. is 2.75"

I did not build this, it was formed on an autoclave. As an FYI, i will be sleeping with this tonight.

rreinforce the insde with some sort of metal…steel maybe. The doing some cutting… and put some josh love into it…then bam!.. you have CF exhaust tips LOL

Close pictures are better, that’s some nice ass carbon. Prepreg I assume?

driveshaft

The process to make this as far as i know it is:

Pre Preg Graphite wrapped around an aluminum bar which is heated during the autoclave process. The aluminum bar ‘swells’ as the CF/epoxy cures, then the whole setup is placed in sub zero temparatures to shrink the aluminum bar and slide the freshly cured CF off.

This process makes it fairly expensive at about $150/ft.

Score, sounds interesting. Ive never heard of anyone doing it like that before.

Wow, that’s fucking crazy how they make that.

I say - Legs for tables

I want to say : Pimp fucking storm gutter tube.

I really want to say : Pimpiest Potato gun in the world

Wanna make me a driveshaft? :slight_smile:

You are sleeping with it?

Hmm

A gerbil chute
