Before I moved on to the vacuum bagging setup I trimmed the edges a little so everything was a little more uniform. Its also because I needed to wrap it with the peel ply and breather element.
So the bagging setup is as follows. First you need to put on a peel ply. This layer allows the resin to pass through it and onto the breather element. Its a real pain to work with and almost drove me crazy getting it to lay down right. I had to end up taping it down to the back side of the mold.
Next you add the breather element. This is whats used to absorb all of the resin that squeezed out of the layup.
