Re: [ATM] Clutch material

If you are in a northerly area (aka the snowbelt) try walmart or other 
chain stores for Snow sliders.  Those sheets of plastic the kids use to 
tobbogan down hills.  They are aprox 16" wide and a little over a 1/16 
thick and would make an excellent clutch material.   The only problem 
might be that the store are problably stocking their summer lines by now :-)
