Netters, I just got off the phone with an old friend of mine (who I haven't talk to in several years) who is in the insulation business here in Jax. I was looking for urethane foam in bulk thicknesses. He said he gets it in bun sizes 41"x 29"x 96" long and can cut it to any specifications I need. His price is $0.50 (US) per board foot (12x12x1) or $6 per cubic foot. That appears to be about 40% cheaper than Wicks with no shipping since I would pick it up. It would also be great to have one soild piece of foam for the leading and trailing edges for the wings.
Is there anything I should be looking for or cautious of when buying this from a non-aviation parts company? I looked through the archives and couldn't find anything specific to this question. Thoughts? See you in Mt. Vernon! Dean Cooper Jacksonville, FL Email me at dean_coo...@bellsouth.net See my KR project at www.geocities.com/djramccoop1/KR2_Home.html
