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.

My screen arrived today here in Edinburgh , it was only picked up on Friday and got here mid afternoon via DHL, very happy that it got here so quickly.
I have an appointment with a local sailmaker tomorrow to look at getting it hemmed and grommeted and some velcro sewn in, I am hoping that they can take the job on.
A massive thanks to Daniel for his efforts in putting this all together for our benefit.

Hello, I need help in printing a label for shipment of screen. I am trying to send the screen from Daniel to Portland Oregon. I am in Perth Western Australia so keep getting security errors from any of the carriers I use. ( I thought we were friends!!) I can organise from Portland to Perth via Australia Post. If someone can help, I can send you an email with address in Portland plus payment via paypal(plus a bit extra for a few pints for your time) Thanks Glenn

I haven't looked at this forum for a while and I see that I missed the payment deadline for the recent shipments. Wasn't there going to be an email sent out when the new roll was in? Anyway, I have a solution for now so no immediate need, but I am still interested and would like to remain on the list.

[dbgolf72]

I still have some material so if you want it just send payment.

[jaus]

I pm'ed but havent' seen a response. I would like to change my dimensions to 10x10. My original quote was for 13'. If I just send the $175.00 for 10' is that ok? Do you send instructions for mailing once payment is received?

[CBDBOZ]

Hi Daniel - just pinged you a mail. If there is still an opportunity, I would like to order a 17x10 screen. LMK. 😉

Hey Daniel,
I got the screen and it is awesome! Thank you so much for all you do!

[dbgolf72]

Please let me know if you anyone has sent a label in and screen does not show shipped. Everything except the last two should be moving by now.

Also, 173 feet left for anyone who wants one.

Best,

Daniel

[jjkoolman]

Just sent label!! Thanks Daniel for your work on this. The forum owes you a big debt of gratitude!

[Msmith6208]

I had emailed a label to your email address - just resent via PM - please let me know if there are issues.

[PinehurstBound]

Label sent for PinehurstBound. For the benefit of others that use UPS, I was able to save a few dollars using the code EASY. Thank you again Daniel...you deserve many good bounces for all the great golf karma you have earned here!

[dbgolf72]

Your welcome hope it works great for everyone

Could be perfect as I am looking for 17 x 10

Can you let me know if I can jump in, and I’m ready to buy.

Cheers 🙂

[dbgolf72]

Sounds good. Go ahead and send payment and I’ll get it cut and packed up it’s $17.5 per foot.

Thanks - I will actually go for 18 x 10 - $315.

I have your details in PayPal - do I choose friends and family or business. F&F has an admin fee .... but can you confirm this is the one I choose??

I will then search the prior posts for details on arranging shipping and getting a label pdf sent to you.

Cheers

[dbgolf72]

Not sure which. I think you can send as gift and avoid fees but need to ask someone else here to be sure

[Captargo]

Any Canadians have any advice or tips on best approach to ship and or create a label for shipping to Canada?
thanks

[pwade3]

I shipped one on the previous order. Got hit with duties. Not sure how to get around that. I have an account with fedex so just created the shipping label though them but you have to go into the international shipping section if your account is Canadian if I remember correctly. I am in on this order so I will have to create another tablel. Just trying to see what I can find about the duties. Anyone else have any ideas about that?

[Thundergolf]

dbgolf72 I emailed label Aug 28th

[jtittle22]

Label sent! Thanks again Daniel, your efforts here are truly appreciated.

[Stonebattle]

Sent my shipping label PDF a couple of minutes ago.
