Carbon fiber handle wrap

[quang tran]

Anyone use carbon fiber wrap around cork or form to made rod grips ?

I've done that when trying my hand at scratch-made rods.  Trying to wrap a round tapered shape with a flat sheet of carbon fiber weave will be difficult.  There will be folds that cannot be hidden to get a uniform look. 

You should consider getting some carbon fiber tow in a 1/4" ribbon.  You can wrap the ribbon on the foam/cork; sort of like doing diamond threadwork on the blank.

Carbon fiber is a bit-ch to "wet out" with resin.  The seizing stuff they put on it to keep it from being fuzzy is difficult to penetrate.  So, it's best to soak the tow or woven sheet in resin before wrapping it around the foam/cork.

Using carbon fiber fabric  is very difficult unless we make handle same diameter as a tube . There is carbon fiber sleeve that we can put over  cord or form handle that way it will wrap around even . I have not make any yet but will soon doing that
