Does anyone have a mail order supplier for sidewall material (ABS or P-tex). I've tried to get it locally, but no luck in Anchorage. Have you been buying rod stock or flat sheets and cutting it?

Thanks

durasurf sells 1/2" thick P-tex sheets that you cut strips from and laminate to your core. it seems to work well.
