Mountain bike frame jig

By
As I near completion of my current project I am considering the next one. My thought is to build a frame jig, and build a carbon fiber frame. In doing some research here is some information I have found. 

I am also including a rough picture of what the first carbon bike will look like below

The title of all bikes is considered to be called Sdog cycles (though this is still a name in the works)
with the first model being the Selma 2

Project bike build/ documentatin call out

We are looking for a volunteer who is looking to build a bike, that would like to team up and have it documented and built by us.

This is two-fold, it will allow us to build a frame jig to start building bicycles post carbon fiber frame mold, and also building the initial launch of a dual sport bicycle. Our jig design is visualized to be mobile and allow for a180 degree build where we can focus on the whole bike, to concentrate on attention to quality and individuality of creating a product for the individual rider.  Our work is hand-laid carbon fiber frames. I will be using a foam core, with a hand-laid fiberglass shell then carbon fiber. The carbon fiber will be a combination of red and black weave to provide an aesthetic that is solely our ow
