RangerZ Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Anybody know where I can get some of the whitish looking Micarta. I tried some of the stuff from McMaster-Carr but was not impressed with it. It was G7 I believe. I would like to find some G10 in this color but all I have found is the Brown/Green. Thanks.

scoop10 Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 I thought they had the G-10 as well. BTW, what kind of problems did you find with the G7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jklett Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Try a search for FR4 laminate. That is the stuff used in circuit board manufacturing. It is tannish colored but if you paint one side black it appears green on the other. I think that is the stuff you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerZ Posted February 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 The white g7 is not opaque more like solid white and seems to splinter more when working it, with fiberglass strands sticking out. I have the greenish/brown g10 and I am happy with it. Trying to find some of the whitish color for shad pattern baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerZ Posted February 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 I am already using the greenish/brown color. I was looking for a whitish color. Maybe instead of looking for G10, I should ask if there is any material similar to G10 in a whitish color that guys are using. Thanks for the help.

BobP Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 McMaster-Carr's G-10 is definitely yellow, their G-11 is a more neutral greenish (and stronger than G-10). www.asp-rocketry.com is an amateur rocketry site that sells the whitest greenish G-10 I've seen. It's a couple of bucks more expensive than McMaster's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
