I have some carbon tow that is described as "12K" which I purchased from
"CST". It is a 25' long ribbon that is Approx. 1/4" wide & Approx. 0.004" thick.
I cut a piece about 10" long & tried to separate out a few "strands" which I
wanted to glue onto a spar to stiffen it. I could not get a 10" long strip,
unless I had quite a few (I don't know how to be more specific) "strands"
More "strands" than I wanted. I have never worked with carbon tow before. Is
this normal? Am I using the correct stuff?
