Paul,
        If you are thinking about using what is commonly called "micro" as a core
for your carbon fiber blades. Then you will have to take great care to ensure the
density is the same for each blade, and that voids are somehow eliminated. It is
really difficult to accurately control the density of micro, and if you make it
less than stiff, you may pay a significant weight penalty due to the higher resin
ratio. Maybe the potential imbalance won't be too bad, but it may be a problem.

I can be bought pre mixed as I understand it.
