    Be ready for sticker shock. There is a global shortage on Carbon fiber and it is getting harder to find at good prices.

    In o3 when I started to buy carbon fiber it was $17.00 a yard and now it's $33.00
    Thanks Bush !!! Because of the war efforts Boeing has put in a standing order for all the carbon fiber on the market !!! certified stainless as well.
    If you do find carbon fiber try to stay away from the tweed material, It has more fibers running one way and less the other. This material is harder to work with. It tends to fall apart or unravel while applying.
