Anyone got best practices to laminate large box sized cavities in foam without too many extra steps?
Last time I first hand laminated the interior.
Was not great and also takes too long.
Current idea is to fill it out with dry chickpeas or something, like when baking a pie and then do regular vacuum.
But if anyone has a good workflow, I would love a better idea.
Are you talking about laminating the battery cavity in a board?
The method all the manufacturers use is to use a reverse mold. That way the finish of the box perfect and doesn’t require post touch up…
Yes
It’s for a one off, so mold is probably too much trouble.
Hi,
See if this concept works for you. A separate pod made of prepreg carbon to insert in the board, where the battery case is inserted.
Yeah the ceapest is to just vac bag down. An alternatice to get a good finish on the base is to vac back a piece of polycarbonate down. I did this on one board and then you get a nice smooth base. I didn’t care about the sides being rough.
