One tip that might help with a web search for the fabrics is including
"short roll" in your criteria; often you can find end of roll quantities at
reduced prices. Another option for stiffening a cloth/resin dish is to lay
out a web on the back with the polyethylene foam rope sold at hardware
stores, and epoxying over them with fiberglass or carbon fiber tape. A solid
foam backing that would accept the resin would be much more robust however.
Walt, if you find a source for the foam, please post. Does that foam accept
epoxy?
