at a wrecker yard, just find an old wrecked cav, or almost any car, and pull it out

I got mine at menards, just use any low pile carpet (indoor/outdoor stuff doesn't fray on the edges when you cut it normaly)

ok another question what do i use to cut it without fraying. i figure scissors but any kind of special scissors (maybe magic scissors) and what do i use to adhere it to the board ?

Regular(Probably fabric) scissors, 3m spray glue, stonger=better (77 to 95 will be more than enough)

I go to Richie's in North Dartmouth, MA. Just went in and asked for Automotive Carpet, any automotive upholstery place is gonna have it. Just open the phone book and take a peek

go to a fabric store, they will have everything you need. im sure they will have some type of scissors there made for cutting fabric w/o fraying it (regular scissors will probably work though) and they will probably also sell spray glue that you can spray on the wood and lay the fabric on.
