Im looking for phenolic to make my son a riser. He wants a black linen phenolic riser with white stripes.( its his money he's saving)
Where is a good place to get thicker phenolic like 1.5x3x16? Or do i have to get tinner materials and glue them up? If so what glue/ epoxy would be good?
I'm not saying you won't find Micarta that thick, but I've never seen it that thick before. You might try Westinghouse web sites. I think they are the ones that developed it for insulation with high votage electical equipment.
As for buying thiner sizes, Binghams, or a good knifemakers supply house would be your best bet.
The glue to use would be Smooth-on, just make sure you sand off ALL the shin on the surfaces to be glued...matter of fact, after sanding, you should probably scar the surface with a hack saw blade, this would give you small groves for the glue to get down into. That would work for sure.
Hope you find what your looking for.
thats kinda what i figuared..
thanks
