A fiber reinforced resin composite structural member is made by coating elongated fibers (50) with fluid synthetic resin (46) and leading the coated fibers (50) between at least four spaced turning points (28, 30, 34) defining the configuration of the desired structural member and completely about at least some of the turning points until the desired cross section for the structural member has been produced. The resin (46) on the fibers (50) is cured to form the desired structural member and the structural member is removed from the support from the turning points. Generally, posts (12, 14, 16) provide at least some of the turning points, and they may have spools (28, 30, 34) thereon about which the resin coated fibers (50) extend and which are bonded with the resin coated fibers into the structural member.
