Where to buy Carbon Fiber sheets? - 03.18.2009, 06:19 PM

Hey guys does anyone know where I can get a sheet of carbon fiber to fabricate a chassis for my GTP.It needs to be 18x7x1/8 inches.Or ofcourse 3mm will work.Alot of the stuff I have found is a plastic laminated carbon fiber that isnt suitable for rc use.

DAGraphite is my preferred supplier. They offer both 3mm and 1/8". He's been doing RC stuff for 25 years. www.dagraphite.com
I think their normal size is 18"x7". Not sure if you can make that work. They normally cut long, so you may luck out and get that extra 1/8th, or you may have to order next size up.
