[Tigers] Non-Tiger Carbon Fiber response.

Wow, thanks for the interest.? That was fun.? As to answering the questions, the carbon fiber was pure and untreated.? The mix for the lay-up was a standard two ingredient plastic made for the purpose.? The same mix was used on each panel.? The tension was put on the tensioned panel with a canvas streatcher for artists.? Each panel was set atop the bottom of a pie plate which then left an outline to cut out the identical panels.? The regidity and weight bearing characteristics were determined by setting the identical sized panels across a span (actually various spans?of different lengths).? Nickels were then stacked in the center and the flexion measured (thus being able to determine the % difference as related to weight).? Thank you for being polite and asking.

P.S.? Sorry to hear about the daughter/lawyer thing.? If its any consolation, she didn't go into American automotive design.? See:? My home town--Detroit.
