I spoke to Tony Dukas a while ago, and they no longer sell reed material.

We ended up at a local circuit board manufacturer and bought circuit board laminate in a couple of different thicknesses. It was coated with copper, though, so we had to etch off the copper, but that is not a lot of work.

If you can find a circuit board manufacturer, you are set. If you are lucky, they have the laminate without the copper coating as well.

I think Jay mentioned Cadillac Plastics in Houston. Cadillac Plastics is now part of GE Plastics.

Your correct Cadillac changed hands, the last time I was over there they were GIVING away all thier in stock scraps and pieces ! A gold mine in sheets of poly, and teflon, a buddy and I just happened in there at the correct time ! The guy said from then on they were gonna sell by the sheet and only on the internet !

Enjoyed our conversation the other Markus ! Next time you are in the US give me a call and get me up to speed as to your projects !

Happy Holidays ........

Bones: Thanks!

Jay: International calls are so cheap these days, I could just as well call you from home. Did I tell you the engine runs great with the rebuilt injectors?
