how many layers of CF are used for a seat such as the one's triton sells? i am looking to make my own but i dont know what is needed for strength.

well i would go for 2 layer CF Cloth then back that with woven

or if you can afford it, 4 layer CF Cloth, dont forget that you will be multi-laying the cloth, so on some parts you can have upto 8 layers of CF Cloth (the base corners for instance)

i would do 2 layer CF, then 2 layer Kevlar

but use for customers, 2 layer and woven. still nice and light, still nice and strong!

thanx for the info SMB!
i think will go for the kevlar mix because kevlar will bring down costs a lot.
