    Burnsco - (Boat supply place) Shakspear Road
    There is also a boat supply joint near the Riccarton Bunnings on Blenhiem Road.

    Yeah they have bags of CSM (actually I think they have woven too) in 150-600gsm, and they have epoxy and polyester resins. I think it's all Nuplex product IIRC. To be honest I buy a lot of my CSM from them... I can do it on the weekend, which is easier than travelling across town. You could also give George at Composite Supplies a ring... he's a smaller business but good to deal with.

    I got a bunch of mat and shit at home you dick, how much do you need?

    edit: just checked, I think I should have put the lid on the resin properly last time I used it

    When/If you get to the point you have a bit of cash, use it to make a mold and do a new one, the guy Goober and Pig used would be able to do it and likes doing different shit
