Anyone interested in some Kydex?

I want to try working with some Kydex. It doesn't look too hard.

 

I don't want to pay for shipping or wait for it to be delivered. So, I found a local shop that sells it for over $1 cheaper per square foot and I can come pick it up. The catch is that I have to buy a 4' X 8' sheet. That's 32 square feet of Kydex, which will take me forever to use. 

 

Anyone interested splitting this sheet of Kydex? I'd love to sell at least half of this sheet for $60. I just don't to end up arranging 16 meets for $4/sq ft.

Cut it up into square foot sections, make it 5.00 a foot, figure shipping and sell it.

I'd really be interested in some, I just can't swing 60 bucks. I could probably do 4-5sqft. What's the thickness?

 

On a side note, do you have plans/materials for a press? What are you using it for? I'd be making knife sheaths with it.

If you were close I'd go half's.


Story of my life, whatever I need, it's always on the other side of the state, LOL.

What thickness is it?


It's the standard 0.06" that costs $5-6 plus shipping just about everywhere I've looked.

I'm copying the press I saw on another forum. It's very similar to the one Old Faithful Holsters sells, but with MUCH better hinges.

I bought 3/4" MDF, ordered some heat resistant thermoform foam online, and plan to use clamps to hold it closed while cooling. It'll look a lot like a waffle iron when I'm done, only square. MMMM waffles.

Thanks to an awesome fellow TGO member, half of the material is now spoken for. 

 

Broomhead and a couple who PM'd/texted me have the rest spoken for.
