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.

Label sent!

[Shaile84]

I’m interested in getting in on an order if there is some available.

[Jeff50316]

Can this be cut down or folded over, I’m going for a screen size of 90x160

[dbgolf72]

I can cut any length by 10 ft tall

[968Cab]

Has anybody from the last list update gotten their screen shipped to them??

Mine was ordered/paid on 8/20.
“Packed and weighed” on the 9/17 update post (#1503)

I sent the label the next morning. It’s still has yet to be used/enter the FedEx pipeline

I appreciate the effort this must take, but the turn around is borderline ridiculous. Once it’s cut and packed, I don’t understand the delay in getting it out the door.

I hope Daniel is okay. PMessages here go unanswered, despite it showing him having activity on the board.

[shwag33]

I got mine, Czwalga. I ordered at the end of July. I sent him the label within a few hours and was shipped probably 3 days after.

[Thundergolf]

Are u sure u have his email correct? He shipped mine within a day off label. Possibly in his Spam folder?

[968Cab]

I double and triple checked it originally. Regardless, I just sent another copy of the label via email to dbgolf72 at the hoo.

I’m sure I screwed up somehow.

[Jeff50316]

I was wonder if there is going to be another order? If so great I’ll get in on it. But if not I understand it’s a lot of work.

[CycloneSteel]

I would be in for 18 to 20 feet also please if can be done in the next month, thanks!

[dbgolf72]

can be done. send payment to maintenance@dekalbfarmersmarket.com

[Stevely]

I'm in the same boat.

Ordered & Paid 6-11-19
Packed 9-17-19
Label sent 9-17-19
Still not showing as shipped

Been waiting a long time. No responses to emails and PM's.

[Shaile84]

Anybody heard from Dbgolf? I was hoping to get in on a piece of 17x10 before it gets cold here but he appears to have gone radio silent. Hope everything is ok, seems like he is typically pretty responsive based on all the positive feedback.

[Shaile84]

Oh awesome, thanks!

[Thundergolf]

He responded very quickly to me emails. I had my screen within a week of sending label

[dbgolf72]

haha radio silent. I was traveling last week but back now. go for it. I have enough material still.

[dbgolf72]

So the issue with 968cab fixed. Seems I am not receiving when people send labels via the website. I'm thinking this may be the same problem we have with Stevely. Please do not send me labels via website. Please send me in PDF format. This way works the other way seems like it doesn't work.

I think the only person pending with an old order not shipped would be Stevely. Anyone else please let me know.

[dbgolf72]

Vinh I think I owe you money now!
Brandon Lerner I had 185.11 received on my sheet when In fact I received 195.11. Sorry for type - o will get the 10 bucks headed your way.

Mark Casey. I have you down for 10 ft.

Lida Him and Robert Wild please advise what size you need?

[wildr1018]

I would like 15 ft. Meant to send you $262.50 but looks like PayPal took their cut so I have just sent over an additional $15 to cover the difference of $11.88 + any PayPal fees. Will wait for go ahead on sending label. Thanks Daniel

Rob Wild

[mgunner0331]

15' for Lida Him. Same as Wild. I can send remainder.

[dbgolf72]

Michael Dayton Please confirm screen size.

[968Cab]

If I had to do it over again, at least using FedEx, I would send the label to myself, save the pdf file, then send the saved file to dbgolf72 at yahoo. Seems mine got lost somewhere in the FedEx set-up/website/process doing it online. It’s not really user friendly for a self-adressed, self paid scenario. JMO.

All good now, rcvd my screen today!

Thanks Daniel!!

[dbgolf72]

Great thanks for the feedback and happy you received it. Hope you enjoy it.
Best,
Daniel

[Stevely]

Thanks for the feedback everyone. DBGolf, I got your email and will be sending over the pdf. Thanks so much for putting this together!
