Hey Guys,
Does any of you know were I can get 15mm to 25mm thick Divinycell from, around 6 foot by 21 inch's wide. I don't want buy a whole sheet.
I want to make a travel board aimed for light wind, maybe chop-top style or egg shaped. Also looking for cheap carbon fibre.
Cheers

Hi richswing.
Not sure exactly in wa, but we get ours from a company called nupol composites. you could just try any fiber glassing business or boat repairer to see if they have off cuts. Ours normally comes in 4 ft by 8 ft sheets but you can get bigger. also maybe try the tafe or other fiber glass or plastic schools.
good luck with the search.

FGI, Fibre Glass International. We used to get all our materials from there when I worked in the Paddle industry.

The Distributor is in Welshpool, but they only sell whole sheets, try the boat builders, they would use a lot of it, Ive still got some 5 mm sections if you require, carbon fibre is never cheap. go for fibre glass also cosider getting a surf board blank, pm me if you want some info Iv got a vac pump lying around some where as well

Marineware in Sydney might sell cut sheets but they sell Corecell not Dicinycell
You could try Summit Composites in WA
Edit - missed the carbon part they both sell carbon and resin as well - and there's no such thing as cheep carbon fibre

Cheers Guys for that, when I have a chance I will follow up.
RayQ, I would be interested in some of your 5mm pieces, I am currently fixing my old surfboard up with 5mm Balsa wood on the top deck (thats if I get the time to have both my arms available), if that fails would be interested in your divinycell. - How much are you asking for?
Cheers
Rich
