I used those to get the sheet for my dash.

Looks like good stuff to me, although ive never got any from anywhere else to compare.

Wow, thats pricey. You know 'cheap' CF is only about £30 a sq metre, right?

true, but uncured, and about 0.2-0.3mm thick. about as much use to you as a chocolate tea pot!

I used to get sheets for making stuff for my radio controlled cars from this lot:
http://www.fibre-lyte.co.uk

It was excellent quality but their standard sheets were very small. You might need to contact them if you want big sheets

I looked on alot of sites for a 1 metre sq sheet and for 2mm thick they were all quite expensive.

Please feel free to prove me wrong though.
