While looking for sources of laminate for the 16" I'm building I came across this thread. I have been looking all over the place for the Ebony Star and I have seen countless discussion on forums about the demise of it. It looks like it is still in production because it is still sold all over the world albeit with hefty delivery charges to Australia. Last week I requested a sample of the Ebony Star laminate from Wilsonart (still advertised on their web site) and received it in a few days. On their web side there is also a list of dealers of their products. Two days ago I emailed the Victorian distributor, HVG in Derrimut Victoria and they had two sheets of Ebony Star in stock. I bought one, I had to buy the full sheet, 1830x765, for $102.08 pick-up I'll keep it for future project or maybe sell the left over at an enormous profit. Here is HVG full address:
Halifax Vogel Group Pty Limited
25 West Park Dr, Derrimut, Vic 3100 tel. 03 9394 3100. Web:
