Default Local Carbon Fiber fabric sources

Anyone know of any good local sources for carbon fiber fabric/resin? Just looking to do some wet layup projects and wondering if there's a good local source for such things. Thanks!

My old roommate from college got a football fields worth of CF free from Hexcel to use for his senior project. Hexcel gave him the "rejected by aerospace people" stuff... Call Hexcel and ask them... it never hurts!!!
