building plug mold pics
Does anyone have any pics or video of a plug or mold being constructed? I saw one video on youtube of DCB having a plug made on a 4 axis cnc. I would like to see how it was done in the old days. Thank you.

Follow the pics;;;basically they make an exact copy out of wood/ wooden station framework, add an exceptional finish and build the mold over the plug

This is making the plug and mold for a car body but I thought it was pretty interesting to see the process.

Will you be using vacuum resin infusion process when laying the laminates?
