Blue glass fiber
Blue_Glass_Fiber_Pen_Blanks.jpgHas anyone worked with this material before??? This is blue glass fiber. I want to make my own blanks. This material comes in sheet form that I know of. If someone knows of sleeve form please let me know. It unravels very easily so I am looking for pointers a sto how to wrap a tube with it. Thanks in advance.

i have not seen this material before, as a thought to try and keep it together what about using some of the aluminum HVAC tape on the under side before cutting to size
the tape is silver on both sides so by theories you wouldn't have to paint the tubes
not sure if this would work but it could be worth a try
all the best
