Carbon fins

Hi,
I want to produce my carbon fins.
But there is no document about layer and directions of layers and epoxy adhesive.
Is there anyone that explain these subjects to me ?

Re: Carbon fins

Since failure of a fin at depth is an extremely crappy and possibly life threatening situation, I wouldn't even consider making my own pair if I had no experience working with carbon.

I do have experience working with composites. Any ideas for links that may enlighten some of us?
