Going to give a try on working with CF and vacuum bagging, as if one wasn't a challenge on it's own. I have been collecting pieces, consumables, etc. for the project which is essentially a shroud for a deployment bag.

This is the shroud form to be covered in 2 layers of 3K 2x2 twill CF inside and out

This is my newly assembled vacuum, which connects to my compressor filter/regulator

Looks good so far. CF hates a sharp edge, so those inside corners should probably get a very healthy fillet before you attempt to CF it. Same with the sharp outside corners and a sanding block.
