Damn, Sam epitomizes “What one man can do, another can do.” There is nothing beyond his learning. So impressed.

I don't understand how people live their lives thinking that's not how it is. Assuming you're able bodied, anything you can do, I can also do if taught

@georgecavanaugh8757 5 месяцев назад

@@AstroToad626 Some things are extremely difficult unless you have a talent for it. Sam seems to pick up anything with relative ease. Musical instruments, tech, sailing, building, repairing electrical, hand navigation, and now he’s 3D printing wind foils. He adapts to whatever he wants to do with relative ease. I’ve tried playing guitar, and while I know I could learn with enough practice, I tried for a couple years to no avail. Sam says “I think I’ll do this or that, and just does it. He’s quite a multitalented man.

@georgecavanaugh8757 5 месяцев назад

Plus he teaches himself in most cases. He repaired that boat to near perfection. Boat repair is a tough skill to learn for most.

I have a lot of experience with fiberglass layup (my dad built fiberglass speedboats out of a backyard shop all threw my childhood) - I think the three bolt attachment will never be strong enough; the area of glass around the bolt heads (X3) is taking all the forces. I think you need to make the stabilizer, the bar, and the foil, all-one-thing using a 'layered sandwich' lamination. Or fabricate a high-strength steel all-one-thing 'backbone' and surround with a matrix/epoxy to get the final shape. Neat watching you learn!

The small wing looks WAY too small for learning dockstart. The big one could work with more speed. Learn to pump with the wing - hold the wing on the front handle and learn to pump the board. It will help to learn dockstarts :)

@mm74forums7 5 месяцев назад

Nice job, man! Main issue with snapping foilwings is the top laminate is too thin in the middle. Put 2-4 more layers of carbon, better unidirectional, on top-middle area. When you print the core, make it 0.5-1mm thinner in that area to accommodate laminate thickness accordingly.

@kwaaaa 5 месяцев назад

Instead of doing 3d core composites, perhaps try the vacuum bagging technique with 3D printed negative molds. Then just glue the two halves together, plus you can reuse the molds over and over if you wax it. The edges will be more refined as it's defined by the mold instead of wherever the composite wants to go.

Yes. I want to try that next.

@maarten_notjustagrip 5 месяцев назад

Hey Sam. I have cut literally hundreds of R/C plane wing cores from polystyrene using a hotwire not much different from your setup. I have found stainless steel trace wire or aircraft locking wire works better and uses way less power than nichrome wire. I use a 12vac low voltage lighting transformer with no dimmer.

@samholmessailing 5 месяцев назад

Cool. Thanks for the tip!

@maarten_notjustagrip 5 месяцев назад

I just checked the wire I use and its 0.025" MALIN brand Aircraft locking wire, and the transformer model, for reference, is EUROLUX ET60T. My bow wire length is about 1m . The trick is to not force the wire through the foam because of the curve in the wire, and also not to go too slow, otherwise you lose size on the profile due to melting. If you watch some R/C wing building videos, youll learn a LOT. about what youre attempting. You need some sort of spar running the full span of your foil. I suggest an old wing batten or two, on edge, preferably a carbon item. Simply cut through your core perpendicular to the chord, spanwise, and glue the spar in and sand to size. Then do your skinning. I suggest carbon/kevlar combo weave. If the dynamic soaring guys can get speeds in the 500mph range with unimaginable G's, YOU can build a successful foil.@@samholmessailing

The reason they came out dry is because you shouldn’t pull full vacuum on a wet lay part. It pulls out too much resin.

@samholmessailing 5 месяцев назад

I used this guys plan as a foil cross section. flukeskitesurfing.com/hydrofoil-plans-v3. I looked up the specs and pictures on manufacturers websites like f-one and axis to get ideas for what I wanted for the chord length and span. The holes are drilled to match an aluminum fuselage I bought secondhand.

I use West System 205/105 for boat repair at work. Despite being the "fast" hardener I still get a solid 15-20 minutes of working time before it starts to flash if I don't mix too much at once. By the way, do you have cad files for the foils you printed? Been learning on a friends setup and would be cool to make my own.
