Wide fabric in SD

General Discussion
1

Anyone know where to get 1522-50 and 3733-38 (4oz in 50" width and 6oz in 38" width E-glass) locally in SD?

I only need 6yds of each.

Anyone ever bought from discountcomposite.com? They have these listed as $2.56/yd and $1.81/yd respectively. They’re up in Ontario, CA so I’d have to pay shipping, but that seems like more than half the price of others. It’s probably not their cut price though.

Thanks in advance,

Hello Marco,

I would start with what Swied says. I’ve never been there but several people have recomended the same store. There’s always Bashams in San Clemente. I’m getting my Resin Research from from Graphite Master. Justin is the San Diego area rep 714-615-9882. They would have what you need but you might need to buy more than 6 yards…

Word on the street is that Diversified Materials Company in La Mesa is done. I called DMC this morning and the message says they have closed their doors.

I’m going to miss them.

Bummer, I was going to stop by on my way home from work today. Last time I was there about 2 months ago they didn’t have any wide stuff but she said they could order it.

I just called them and had them quote the order with ground shipping and it was ~$100 for 12yds of cloth

I just did the weight estimates for a full 6oz schedule and I’m only saving a pound and a half by doing the bottom in 4oz.

My core weighs just over 2.5#, my stack of paulownia weighs 3.5#, I figured the 6oz over-under w/resin is 8#, i figure a sanded hot-coat will add another 1.5 maybe 2.

So I’m looking at a 10’ 6" pig weighing in at 16 pounds before the fin.

I’m going today to get more resin from John Greer (AeroMarine). He’s got the 6oz.

I just got a roll of hexcel 3733-38 (6oz in 38" width) that should be here next week, that’s way more than I need and would be happy to part with 6 yards or whatever you need, if you want to drive over to the beach and pick it up. I got a good price on it too so no worries what you spend on gasoline! Going camping w/ the kids soon but will be back by the 10th if you can wait that long. Just PM me if interested…
