• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

I recently made this seat back using a vacuum bagging technique. Is there anything I could have done differently to eliminate the imperfections on the backside of the plate? (Pic 2). I made sure all the plastic layers were as flat as possible but you can still see marks from when the material scrunch up under vacuum.

Purely cosmetic I know, and I can always sand it down just trying to refine my skills.
