It's just a PIPE there is no JOIN! wink

I might do an experiment at some stage.

There are spray adhesives that are used to hold fibres in location while setting up.

It is a pipe inside a pipe with two membranes. One with vacuum and one you inflate later on to increase pressure. I guess Scarecrow is still hung up on the split pipe method described earlier grin

Now, how would the ends of the pipe look, or is there a membrane able to hold 2-4 bar?

Sorry, hadn't payed enough attention, I now see you're cutting the pipe after making the part.

I like the idea of marrying several of these concepts. Use a split pipe and low pressure to form a thin carbon sleeve inside the pipe. Once cured, laminate and inflate again from inside the carbon sleeve you made in the split pipe and let it bond to the carbon sleeve (it becomes the outer part of the tube).
