Well Captain The closest material supplier is in North Carolina (OB) called U.S. Fiberglass. The thing to look at is total cost if you are shipping. If you going to the OB pick up the stuff there. Shipping several blanks is the about the same cost as shipping one blank. You also want a place where you can get all the components (resin, glass, fins etc), one stop shopping. Another place that does internet sales for all components is Fiberglass Supply at www.fiberglasssupply.com.>>> howdy all, after much research and discussion, a buddy and myself are gong > to start shaping boards ourselves. just wondering if anyone knows of > anywhere in the New Jersey area that supplies blanks and other supplies. > any help would be much appreciated. thanks the captain http://www.viser.net/~anthwind/
