Hi I read the Do it yourself post about homemade sails and I was wondering about how much it would cost to make a new Tornado main and jib, and, in the article, it mentioned that there are companies that cut the sailcloth for you- but I can't find them!:-x Does anyone know sailmakers that do this- and where to find them? Thanks.

they have all that info
you will also need a decent industrial strength sewing machine... or a mail order bride with a thimble.
