Walmart or about any other place that has a craft section sells fleece usually. I used plain old cotton white fleece for my project cause it was the cheapest. :-)

You're gonna have to use fiberglass too. Fleece alone isn't that strong heck I could put my thumb through it probably if I tried. It gets pretty brittle after you get the resin cured on it.

For resin try going to a local boat shop or I've heard you can even get it from Home Depot or a store like that. I know Walmart/Autozone etc sell it in quarts but look to use at least acouple quarts and for around 8 bucks/quart that gets expensive quick. I would recommend finding a local place and getting it in a Gallon. If all else fails check out online stores like www.uscomposites.com

As for the glass there's not going to be any pressure involved so no need to go overkill on biaxial or heavy woven stuff... acouple 3 layers of plain mat will probably be enough unless you're one of those people that like to lean on the center console like me. Again buying from places like Walmarts adds up quick since it's 4 bucks for only 8 sq feet.

You can find and buy everything you need there if you cant find it local.
