Re: (ATMoB:Discuss) Question about Teflon
Mike,
There are some Teflon 'scraps' at the clubhouse, and I also have some pieces
at home. An excellent source for Teflon, Delrin, etc is Laminated Plastics
in Billerica. They have a minimum order, but if you tell them you just need
some scrap for a hobby, etc., they'll let you pay cash and you can just see
the guy at the loading dock and tell him what you're looking for. Always
call first though.
Laminated Plastics CO
