0.60 oz fiberglass
« on: November 27, 2024, 07:59:58 PM »
After the success with the carbon veil I decided to try to find bulk 0.60 oz fiberglass cloth.

Bummer, the best I could do was a minimum order of 5000 sq. meters at 58 cents per sq meter.  That's a commitment of $2900 without shipping.  Maybe after I hit the lottery, ..... but then I'd just pay full price.

I got 10 yards from national balsa for about $50. It’s currently sold out but every now and then they also run sales on it

I called ThayerCraft last week. They are sold out and he wasn’t interested in sharing if or when more FG cloth might be available.  He pointed to National Balsa who is also sold out.  I ended up ordering from Balsa USA
