Sweet, looking forward to see some pictures. Carbon fiber is my favorite material to work with. What tools do you use?

IMG_0071 tells me that we are creating our parts in the exact same way! A metal/alu part as blueprint and two screws to keep it steady 8)

Looks good so far. I'm neutral to the fact that you skip some unused holes. Holes look ok on carbon fiber :)

Yeah. I'm not sure will it look better with the extra holes. They are easy to make but I think I'll skip them.

"La Carbon" is not periodic correct material for Scorpion and kitchen table is OK place to macine carbon and other materials :lol:

Seriously, cool project and looking forward to see completed.
