[QUOTE="Tidus56, post: 2029643, member: 104495"] So we have tried both a foam core and using foam to pressurize and fill the space. We actually ended up getting better stocks with the foam core. We have made a few stocks without any pin pricks or fish eyeing or any other mistakes in the exterior shell. The key to that was putting the epoxy down on the mold, giving it thirty or so minutes and then laying the actual wetted out CF and adding the foam core. We used a ton of nuts and bolts to squeeze the mold together super tight. It made for a perfect exterior of the stock. I will pull the gunstock that’s the closest to what we want and take a few pics of it and add here. [/QUOTE]
