I doubt it will be feasible at home...

It's a mixture of carbon fibers and other materials that is heated in a stamp at relatively high pressure and then machined.

Something like this:

Not feasible at home, the very word "forge" should be a giveaway.

I think there was someone on RG who succesfully attempted this but it's by no means an easy feat

@GenTle Thats similar to the Hublot’s carbonfiber manufacturing. I am seeking for info about forged carbon ap makes :)

@Kaiser There is one guy but he is not willing to help just to sell products :)

@traillboss99 yes i know it is not easyest thing to make, i tought maybe prepreg carbon fibers could do the yob but there is no info about pressure to the mold, temperature etc :)
