Buy Impact Screen Fabric Directly from Mill

[dbgolf72]

As a cost sensitive person attempting to build a high quality simulator, I realized purchasing the correct impact screen is critical to both the simulator's overall performance and it's price tag. It should be affordable, durable, seamless, impact resistant, have minimal bounce back, low noise, and display HD quality images.

West Coast Netting, Par2Pro, Foresight, Carl's Place and others listed in various forum threads all sell screens but none actually manufacture them. Buying second hand increases cost and my goal to buy the highest quality materials at the best possible price can only be accomplished by purchasing direct from the mill that manufacturers the fabric.

After plenty of research I found the mill that's manufacturing the impact screen fabric for Foresight, Carl's Place and others. The mills highest quality impact screen fabric is a heavyweight knit polyester sold only in 120 inch x 40 yard rolls. The raw material costs $56/yard without shipping.

40 yards is clearly too much material for my simulator so I'm looking to get a group of us on the forum to split a roll.

Please advise any interest or questions.

even after cutting these 4 we are still 3 feet short. anyone have something to spare or i need to cut one more.

[dbgolf72]

options for those who didn't make cutoff. There is no more material of this same quality until next run. I can ask for the lower quality which Daddio was happy with or a mid grade. i can refund the money. just let me know.

others if you want to start sending shipping labels send to my email at imports@dekalbfarmersmarket.com

[SwingLeft]

When/Where will be a good date/time/place for pickup? Thanks for all the time and effort you put into this.

[RickyG]

Hi if you do another order I would like an 18 feet wide can you PM me the cost for New Model Finished vs Raw I am not in a big hurry since I wont be using my sim again till October

Thank You

[dbgolf72]

Sorry was tired last night and forgot no one will be able to send me a shipping label without size and weight of package. I'll figure this out on Saturday and let everyone know bc I'm out of town today and tomorrow for a quick trip.

Pick up would be at
Dekalb Farmers Market
3000 east Ponce de Leon ave
decatur ga 30030

also another option for those who didn't make cutoff would be to wait until the next run. Forgot to mention that and I'll find out when that is.

If if no one wants to shave off 3 feet then looks like jerry3 will have to get cut unfortunately. : (

[BlairDarst]

When is a good time tomorrow or Monday to get it and get it to the finisher?

[dbgolf72]

For pickup time could be as early as this Saturday but you guys need to coordinate with me times to make sure I'm there

[Thundergolf]

What would the mid/lower quality compare to? I could also wait until next run. No biggie either way. Apreciate your effort!

[wbond]

dbgolf72 $7.96 sent for pp fees.

[thaar]

Woohoo! Thanks again for putting this together!

[jerry3]

dbgolf72 thanks for the update. If anyone can spare 1-3 feet I would greatly appreciate it.

However if no one can I might take the 11 rather than the 14, I'm going to play around with my projector to see if it would work.

Thanks again DB

[inorkuo]

I can give up 1 ft

[jerry3]

Thanks inorkuo I really apreciate it! That will work perfectly for me as my current screen is also 12ft in length so I know my projector will work fine with these dimensions.

dbgolf72 this will be all I need to have a workable screen. Could you please refund inorkuo 1 foot, also you can keep the extra I've paid for mine, thanks for your help!

[dbgolf72]

Blairdarst, tomorrow around 3:30 or 4:00 or Monday around 2-3 pm.

If you are doing another order with the high quality material I would like to be included if possible. I would need raw only and will do a measurement if this is possible. At the moment I would it would be about 15ft section. Cheers
