I use a lot of 0.060 and 0.040-0.043 bwb fiber purfling. I have one source for shorter lengths of 0.060 that is excellent but my main source of longer strips in both sizes is showing a significant drop in quality with twisted and delaminated pieces common.

Any ideas on sources for good quality stuff in long strips in these sizes?

Thanks

Terry

You might try Michael Gurian.

Thanks Jim
I had not looked at the Gurian website in a while. It appears he is now offering exactly what I want.
