Rear Wing and Bonnet Scoop

Hi all,
I took the plunge in September this year and started my own Composites business. Attached is a link to the sort of work I am doing at the moment.

“this is a private album”

I think you have to fiddle with the album settings a bit. (computers can be as difficult as composites, at times…) :slight_smile:

Sorry album should now be public

Good work! is the scoop your own design?

Hi, thanks for the positive comment.
Yes the Scoop and the Wing are both my design.
Regards Warren

Cool! I was wondering how you went about designing the scoop and creating a plug / mold?
I’m making a plug for a spoiler, you can see how I made my plug here: http://www.talkcomposites.com/623/Pattern-Making-and-CAD,-need-advice

It’s my first real attempt at it so I’ve learned a lot.

Planning the mold now as detailed here: http://www.compositescentral.com/showthread.php?t=7676

I’m finding there’s a lot more people on this forum to give me advice.

I am old school I’m afraid. I usually have a pretty good idea of how I/the customer wants the part to look. I then just start with either foam/MDF and start shaping/forming. Don’t get me wrong I use software also as with the Wing, I used CFD/Wind Tunnel evaluation. But sometimes your eye can be your best design tool.The Wing is made with a two part/split mould, if you email me carboncopiesltd@yahoo.co.uk I can explain the project from start to finish.

Well it looks really good, I’m impressed!

nice work…
