Carbon Fiber plates?
Anyone know where to get CF plates that can be cut to size?
Preferably, colored ones. Thanks.

Wayne, I got some from Graphtech a few years back. Black carbon with Kevalar Yellow mixed in. It looks pretty cool. They also have black carbon with blue or red I believe.

Re: Carbon Fiber plates?
its so easy to make 3mm ply thats carbon surfaced, i first paint the ply with black acrylic which drys strait away. Then wax 2 pieces of glass, poor small amount of 24hr resin on each piece of glass then roll it out with roller. Then lay 6once carbon on each piece of glass neatly with weave strait. then poor bit more resin over carbon fiber and use roller again to spread it out and soak it through. finally sit black ply plate on one piece of glass, then grab other piece of glass sit it on top (don't worry the carbon won't fall off when flipped over. Its best to put at least 6mm foam either side of glass before weight is put on cause it helps even weight and wont crack glass. To separate just lever around outside of plate with teflon wedge and it will release if waxed properly.
