Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

As much as I enjoy using a draw knife and spoke shave, they eat up a lot of time. So I'm looking for a reputable supplier of fiberglass blades. A quick search of "S809" returns a number of results, and they all "look" the same.
I'm assuming most come from China, and Chinese QC is sketchy at best. Any suggestions?
On another note, Chris Olson, Hugh, Gizmo and others on this site; Thanks for posting your successes and failures, it gives the rest of us something to shoot for.
Keep up the quality work,
Thanks
Don

I just bought a set from magnet4less.com
3.3 meter with hub. Look really good. Made by windmax. Appear to be from the v20 2kw turbine.

I've come across them online in my search, but like I said, I was sceptical of the quality. Thanks for the heads up. Any other suggestions out there?
