"What is a wetlay wanker ?"

People that make poor quality carbon fibre as opposed to the top level prepreg stuff.

I run a company making high end carbon parts and there's a lot of junk in the market.

Well I wasn't what they were used for...the pros the cons, anything really.

Obviously it's a fibre and made of carbon ...but that is all I've got

Simple carbon fibre doesn't cover useable stable and safe wheels, that's high end r&d, testing ect ect

I would love carbon fiber stocks for my firearms. They just too expensive. Polymers way cheaper.

That's for the musician to decide, those carbon violins are becoming popular even to the classical players aren't they

Played a steel body guitar had a very harsh tone guess carbon would give more mellow sound.

Depends on the core material that is being used

This might sound odd but I'd love a perfect sphere of solid carbon fibre, maybe 6 inches in diameter, polished to within an inch of it's life.

Again , I know it’s outside the realms of “simple” but a while ago I was fascinated by a YouTube chap called Mike Patey who was building his own custom carbon fibre aircraft “Scrappy”. Watching him just knocking out of these massive custom panels was amazing. Definitely worth a watch if you’re into that kind of thing
