Default RE: Do you have composite information you would like to share?

Hey Guys, I want to vacum bag my fuselage after laying up. Molds are in two halves, left and right. I have a couple of questions on which I require some help.

When should I release the vacum and remove the bagging materials from the molds ? Also when should I trim the excess cloth around the seam ?

I am also used to baking the molds for 20 minutes after laying up. Can I bake it after adding vacum to the molds. I plan to hold the nylong bagging film on the mold flange with sealent tape. Any help or step by step photos on laying up a fuselage and vacum bagging it would be welcome.

Thanks.
