Anyone ever worked with carbon fibre?

Just looking into the options at the mo but just found a guy in the states who built his own blade style road bike.
Basically shaping polystyrene to form all the main sections, top tube chain stays etc then wraping in carbon fibre he had applied the resin to. He seemed to get good results with the vac bag but i would imagine you get a much smoother finish using negative molds and the whole shape can be done in one shot (well two with the left and right side) ???

Anyone else want to chime in? Could really do with some experienced insights before i take on this project  :-\
