pressure-sensitive adhesive black felt bulk order?

Thanks to Erik Mann (P3) I have located a source for black felt with a
pressure-sensitive adhesive backing, perfect for suppressing canopy
glare and reflection. However, the vendor insists on a $100 minimum
order (about 10 yards of material). I only want 1 yard, so I'm
looking for other parties that might be interested in a piece or two.

I'd be willing to order the material and parcel it out if there is
sufficient interest. Email me at

That would appear to be a good price. If you don't get takers, try
McMaster-Carr, www.mcmaster.com. They carry black self-adhesive
felts.

Based on the responses I have gotten so far, I just ordered 10 yards
of the material. When it comes in, I'll notify everyone.

Thanks,

Tim Taylor got the last one, so the felt "yard sale" is officially
over. Now all I have to do is deliver the [yard] goods ;-). I should
have the bulk order in sometime next week, and everyone's pieces out
within a day or so after that.

Just buy standard felt or velvet at your local fabric store. Apply with 3M
77 spray contact adhesive. I did this five years ago and it is still
perfect.
