[QUOTE="ejg, post: 1142123, member: 12381"] You are almost done, great. What do you normally manufacture in your workshop? seems well equipped. We do have an internal unidirectional carbon frame in our stocks as well as an internal frame around the inlet/recoil lug/internal pillars. Woven carbon outer shell, lightweight fill in the front and rear cavities all wet in wet laid up in one go. As far as we have noticed the dangers or limits are that the carbon shell or in your case a thin outer wood layer could be punctured if the stock whacks against a sharp object. No total failure. Stock stiffness I think is very important, going extremely light the stiffness will go down to a level that one might not be happy with. As usual it's about finding the right compromise. edi [/QUOTE]
