John,

Do you think there's any advantage in infusion vs hand layup and vacuum bagging?

In addition to what Nick has written, hand layup and vacuum bagging is a good way to compact the layup, but not such a good way to control the resin content.

Infusion is a good way to control the resin content and compact the layup.
