Re: [FMF] Free Model F - Capacitive Flippers

[So, in your case, epoxy pressure is way lower, and air bubbles won't even be compressed 2x. Which means, in current configuration, that the moment epoxy reaches point "B", all the air remaining within the mold will be forced into the feet. I see what you mean. I did not contemplated this option. Y...

Hello DMA, Good to see that you are back on track :) ! 3 g graphite 14 ml epoxy [*] My flipper does not work! The level change happens, but it is too low. 3/17 = 17%. 4g graphite+13ml epoxy will be 23% - which might just be the ticket (could be mechanically unsuitable, in which case better carbon bl...

Re: [FMF] Free Model F - Capacitive Flippers
