Could you do something a bit smaller and capable of standing 2 bar pressure? In short, yes. But. I've already had one stress calculated, and it needs to be around 1.5mm thick, if I orientate the plies at 45 degrees, which uses more material. It's something I've been thinking about, just not sure I want to This is FORD country, on a quiet day you can hear Vauxhalls rusting. |

I did quite a bit of research and concluded that I needed a 2 piece mould and a bladder. An open box type mould and bonded flange would not do the job.

In the end I've reverted back to welded stainless. Yes, but a bolted and bonded flange would. It's nothing too difficult, pretty much the same as what I've made here. Just a fair amount of work.

Looks nice, Will you carry out a practical pressure / vacuum test of the completed & assembled part? I have had quite large discrepancies between simulated and actual practical behaviour especially with joined assemblies subjected to N/A depression levels Hadn't planned to, didn't see the need??

If you have to make a 2 piece mould...how is that done ? I presume the join area needs to be totally smooth ? You have 2 options, lose the join on a sharp corner as I have done. Or make the mould in 2 cures. Shutter the mould down the middle, and make each half in separate cures. That way the join will meet up perfectly.
