  Hey Bill;
     The last time I bought any, it was the widow of the guy that had Windancer kits, that was selling off his stuff and had tons of fillet material in several sizes. Ty Marcucci  posted a place either on this forum, or Stuka where he gets his from, a tool and die maker supply place. They still use it for setting up sand cast molds and stuff  maybe just search leather fillets on here and on Stuka will turn up the info, and i don't think it was that long ago that Ty posted the supplier that he uses.
  MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Just to add to Larry's post on Freeman supply from the home page enter "leather fillet" in the search box and it will take you to them. I just asked for a quote on 1/8" & 1/4" by 100 ft.


Best,    DennisT
