Mustangman gave me some awhile back and I used it-up, We laid-up a carbon-fiber mast a while back and my boss reminded me we had plenty leftover and gave me a WHOLE SPOOL!!! bubsteve

Think of it as the yarn they use to weave carbon fiber mesh before they saturate it with resin and compress it into hard bits lol I soaked a bunch of it in a mix of 75% 5-min epoxy and 25% denaturned alcohol and used it to strengthen the leading edge of one of my styrofoam chucker projects: Works great! Also its good for lashign around home-made control rods, or around bendy aluminum landing gear struts. You'll find it VERY handy. GRU |

Would you be willing to send 3 or more carbub fibub, aka 30'+, to N8N 2L9 Canada? We have a Heavy Lift comp coming up at the club and this would go a long way to keeping us from mandating hardhats!
