    Where's a good place to get cheap fiberglass and resin? I need to glass a sailboat rudder blade, so I don't need much but certainly more than somebody like Homedepot offers at their ridiculous prices. I'm probably looking at a gallon of resin to have some left over, and about 10 square feet of heavy mat.

    RAKA, Boat Builder Central, US Composites, Epoxy Products.

    Johnson Glass & Resin Co. in South Houston has System Three products in stock.

    Go on the West System web site and do a retailer search. They have about 30 dealers in Texas.
