I am working on a private transportation project in Milwaukee, and am using carbon fiber for the main structure. However, I am not sure how to create the pieces. If there is anyone in the area that would like to help out, it is voluntary, I would appreciate any help.

By 'private transportation,' you mean race-car/street-car, right? Assuming this, if you really want to start with composites, carbon has a bit of a steep learning curve. I'd really reccomend starting with fiber-glass and polyester resins. Cheaper, simpler, and the eqipment investment will be less for quality results. Good luck.
