@odin: i saw your skateboard press frame made of osb boards on your myspace.
awesome idea...i wonder what pressures you're using and maybe if you could use it as a ski press as well (maybe with some reinforcements).

you can get it from some european suppliers like www.swiss-composite.ch or www.r-g.de
don't know any US suppliers though.
or try www.basaltex.com in belgium.
btw, do you know which type of basalt fiber (type of roving e.g. biax, triax, ud,... and what weight) to use best?

ratchet straps might be hard to get the pressure distributed evenly. but you could use bags made of cordura which shouldn't be hard to come by (i'll be getting mine from montucky madman from this great forum). have a look at this thread to get the idea: http://www.skibuilders.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.ph...
