| Infusion is relatively high risk of losing a lot of material if something goes wrong during the infusion.

This is an interesting assessment of risk.

Is the risk high of losing a whole panel if something goes wrong?
It seems to me that, if you pulled and held full vacuum for some number of hours before infusing, if you have done practice infusions on smaller pieces to build skill while risking little, your risks are very small.

But if, say, your table collapses while infusing, or, all your vacuum tube spontaneously develop cracks or holes, or you have a power outage, then you may lose all your carefully laid out material.

This might be mitigated by your slow resin, and perhaps you can pick it all up and put it all back together and still vac the part, but probably not.

So, in my ignorance, perhaps the risk of a part killing event is very small, but if it happens, the risk of a failed part is large.
