i have made some things from carbon, kevlar and glass. (my travel bike has a seat base of home-made fiberglass) from what I have read and done, I would say that carbon is only for when you need it REALLY light and stiff.
Learn with glass.
Even most "carbon fiber" parts only have the outer layer in carbon for looks. all inner layers are glass.
Good luck
PS there is a website, forget the name but their moto is "itching for fun" that sells home layup supplies. do a search
