Not a tub but woven sock with a locsed end. I am interested in making a CF shift knob like this.
The post in the BMW forum used a Sock, perfect for my application, ( I don’t want anything on the top, just pure CF)
I’m pretty sure Anders was using a CF sleeve/tube, and just calling it a sock…notice the hole in the top of the shifter knob.
I’ve never seen a closed-end sleeve…not to say they don’t exist, just never seen one.
Maybe a two-part mold and a bladder might give you what you’re looking for?
Maybe tie a knot with a tow of carbon, or even just a piece of string, and pull it over. After trimming you’ll need something to hide the top though.
‘braided carbon fiber’ is what your looking for.
www.sollercomposites.com They have many colors available in case you would like a hot pink or camo shifter.
