Wanted: Looking for Marsden Matting

[sth65pac]

Hi Tim,

its struggle to get ONE piece here. I know of a pristine length near my house, It has hung on a fence for all of my days on this earth...I have asked the owners about it. Even wrote a letter... No response. It is getting hard to come by here in Aust, when I was in the Navy 20 years ago, there was a lot of it, It was used extensively around the airfield where I was posted.....today its allllllllllllll gone. As the Bl**Dy scrappers have taken it all. Good luck, I would also name it Perforated Steel Planking as some may not know it as Marsden Matting.

Myke,

There might be more of a demand up here for stuff like this than you think... keep an open mind!

Jiff,

You are absolutely right.

I am currently negotiating with Calumet for a delivery.

Is there anyone else out there interested in a few pieces or lots of Marsdon, PSP, Martson Matting? Let me know by PM or email. I am putting in an order in the near future.

cheers from Windsor ON

Very interesting. For their page on PSP matting, their description is almost identical to two of the paragraphs I contributed to the Wikipedia entry:

Thanks for the link, I've been looking for a source of Marsden matting so I can hang a couple of lengths from my CMP and there they are, practically in my back yard! Calumet ia about a 3 hour drive from my house in Corinth, Texas. I'll post pics when I've picked some up. Thanks again! Derek.
