A bit gauche, IMO.

wow

I'll make that bathtub for half that price if someone wants one. I can't touch that welding helmet price though.

ill spray paint bathtub for taco truck +3 tall cans

Honestly, what's the cost in materials and approx time?
-
it would probably cost $2k in materials and take me 40-50 hours to make
-
How flexy would that be? Also, have you seen some of the tables/stools on that site? Functional, in your opinion?

Why wouldn't they be?
It's a strong material. You can build tables/stools out of anything.
-
if it was laid on a foam core it can be more stiff than a conventional fiberglass or plastic tub.
the chairs that i saw could be made with a nomex core and be plenty strong enough.

looking at some of this stuff, im thinking it might be just carbon laid on wood

Would definitely be a helluva lot cheaper/easier. Actually has me tempted to make a rice coffee table.

I could see Dave buying this, he would never use it, but it would be something just to have.

Dick is hard

Who the hell would pay $300 for a helmet that isn't auto darkening?
I'd happily pay $300 for it if there was no lens at all, but would accept my digital elite guts. Having a really light helmet helps make the 12+ hour shifts suck less. I have 3-4 16hr days of welding to do in a couple weeks, everything helps if you do this kind of shit.
-
I've been wondering whether carbon fiber will ever lose its appeal. I'm not sure if it looks hot because it looks hot, because it's "rare," or a combination of both.
Either way, the CF furniture does look pretty sweet. Digging the table :P
-
I'd be down for table. Not for $2500 though
-
it would probably cost $2k in materials and take me 40-50 hours to make
What kind of hourly rate? I don't own a house so I have no use for a cf tub, but I am curious to know what it costs to build similar parts. How does CF do for resistance against oil?
-
Anyone who would buy this deserves to get ripped off.
-
this might sound gay but I like carbon fiber shit. I don't know why but I do

It's because you're gay.

The company I work for charges $85hr for composite repairs. We don't make things too often, but when we do, it's the same price.
What do you have in mind for the oil it would see? I have never seen any issues with oil. The planes we work on have carbon wings and the fuel tank is part of the wing. No bladders or anything, just a sealant poured in and the wing rotated through the course of a day.
-
That company should make a carbon fiber dildo.
So some you guys can have your "girlfriends" anally pleasure you.
Not naming names like Buk or anyone else. :noel: :noel: :noel: :noel: :noel: :noel:

That seems pretty reasonable to me. I was thinking about cutting fluid tanks for cnc machines, they rust/rot out all the time, I don't really have the problem because I run a really rich concentrate of water soluable oil, but some of the machines I work on I have to build new tanks every now and then because of the synthetic fluid they are using.
-
You could easily build a fiberglass tank for that and have no problems ever again.

That just might be the funniest thing you have ever said. I'm very tempted to post that on Facebook cause I know a few hella flush retards.
