anybody know what distributor will sell me a sheet of kydex. I live in south jersey. Even a 1/4 sheet would do 2x4. I'm making a truss scope and I would rather use kydex because of the weight and durability.

anyone know if a dark stain is more protective (uv, moisture, etc)than a light wood stain? I am thinking about just possible using polyurethane to protect my scope thAT I'M making but if it does not protect as well as a light stain and a urethane then I will use a dark stain and polyurethane.

I'm ready to buy a shoud for my home made truss scope, can anyone tell me a good place to buy one? Storage items like pole and secondary cage storage is something I'm interested in also. making things myself is also an option. So anyone have some neat home made ideals? like what do I do with my mirror box, I have a lid but it sits in the rocker and dirt and dust can get up underneath. Do I buy a big bag to put it in or what?
