Re: [APD] Re: ah supply reflectors

The only sources I can find for the good mylar sell ten foot minimum 
lengths of 36 inch wide material.  My reflector project is a big one, 
for me, but not quite that big.  I assume the mylar balloons you can 
buy at grocery stores are the kind that doesn't stand up well?  Other 
than that I can't think of where to look locally for good mylar.   I 
did buy a 30 foot roll of two inch wide aluminum tape today - a bargain 
at $4.
