Talked to CFA (Composite Fabrics of America) at SAMPE last week, and they seem to be a good bunch of people. They had a sample sheet of a smilie face in a star, woven in kevlar and carbon…it…was…AMAZING. However, when I came back to get a pic of it, a “sales” guy was stalking me, so I didn’t get to talk to the owner, who had it. However, I’ve only seen this stuff at Fiberglast, and a Japanese company that had it for a few k$ a roll, PLUS shipping. Check them out. Not sure what they sell as short-rolls.

Also, I will back up Soller Composites. Talked to them, and they are great people. Great products! Will be testing some colored glass/carbon samples/braids soon. They look AMAZING compared to dyed kevlar.

Sampe! When can we expect a full photo report? :slight_smile:

The link was my photo report. I saw so much, I kind of guessed anything could also be google searched. Some vendors don’t like photos, and sales people will attack you if you even glance at their booth :slight_smile: While I got lots of good info about things, and there were many beautiful carbon things…nothing really excited me enough to hold it in my memory with a picture :slight_smile:

Do you have any link to the suppliers of the custom weaves? Fiberglast has 6 of them and I ordered a sample pack to see them in person. Now that I’m ready to order some fabric the one I want has been discontinued…

Any other supplier of the “Atomic” weave carbon fiber?
