Abstract

A method of forming a gas turbine engine component includes the steps of forming a component shape from a plurality of fabric layers of ceramic matrix composite. The component has an outer surface. An insert is formed from a plurality of fabric layers of ceramic matrix composites into a cup-shaped intermediate insert. The intermediate insert member is densified. Then a final insert is inserted between radially outer layers and radially inner layers on the outer surface. The method then densifies the component. A gas turbine engine component and a gas turbine engine are also disclosed.
