Default Composite Propane tank anyone?

From the pictures it looks like they are made from uni with a top ply of
woven. Not exactly a chopper gun layout. I would like to see how they are
fabricated though. Controlling the fiber orientation and density in a
completely enclosed mold is something I am really interested in finding out.
