Pretty self explanatory from the title.
Where do you get your raw materials and tools/equipment?
so far only uscomposites.com
best prices on the items i personally use.
wish they had a better online ordering system - there website kind of blows.
i wish http://michiganfiberglass.com/index.html had a better website - theirs REALLY blows.
they are about an hour drive from me and have some things that would be better purchased local, but would like to know ALL there options/sizes/specs.

I was just doing a search for cytec and I hate to bump a dusty old thread but I noticed a common theme throughout everyone’s post; crap websites. Checkout carbon-fiber.us -newish to market but great prices and online ordering. Also, the carbon is mostly toray not some garbage cf.

:D:D:D
As far as I know, there are not a large amount of companys producing fiber… who exactly makes “garbage cf”?
Garbage CF as in second grade, old inventory, firesale stuff. Garbage is probably a bit of a stretch .
