Carbon fiber.
« on: October 30, 2014, 07:20:00 PM »
Anyone know where to get the X woven carbon fiber that guys are using on bow backs? Haven't had any luck finding any so I thought I'd ask here.

Thanks,
Cory

I posted a pic in the bowswap on August 11. Is that what you're looking for?

Josh,

That looks pretty close, there must be different fiber sizes and angles on this stuff. I see no reason why using what you used wouldn't work.

The carbon I cary doesn't have the woven pattern.
What I cary is lay ups of several unidirectional layers of carbon on both the zero and + and - 45deg planes.
The woven pattern carbon is mostly for looks and adds very little "carbon" advantage. Well really carbon doesn't add a lot of advantage anyway. Certainly a little in some designs and when the designs have reached their max potential, The only way to get another few feet per second is to use the carbon.
