I haven't used carbon fibre so i would not like to make an incorrect statement. I have worked with fibre glass and the resins used generate a lot of heat. An option could be to use blue or pink polystyrene foam to make a male mould, which in turn you use to create a female mould. This can be done by putting the male mould in the bottom of a box, pouring plaster or a cold cure resin of some sort. Then to remove your origanol polystyrene mould just disolve it out with a solvent. This mould can then be used to create a more durable working mould. This lets you work with a material that is easy to form and then create a copy in a harder more durable material.
