Title: Uni-Directional Carbon Source
Post by: Cupcake on August 10, 2024, 05:32:42 PM

I used to buy uni-directional Gordon's carbon from Dale Stahl (RIP).  This carbon was .035" thick.  I have used the last ones I had and would like to find a new source.  I bought some uni- carbon from Bingham's just before they retired but it is .030" thick and requires changes in my limb stack.  The slightly thicker carbon is my preference.

I had heard that there was an estate sale of Mr. Stahl's inventory.  Is there any chance that someone knows where his stash of CF ended up?

I think it might have went to the rosewood shop- I know they have uni carbon because I talked with them a while back- I have one piece left :)

I haven’t purchased any uni carbon for years, but I bought a lot of it though these guys…
