What kind and how much?

For machine felt, if you just need padding, hit McMaster-Carr.
Otherwise, I have some LH-quality handmade felt I could sell you. You'll pay for it, given the labor that went into it, but it's as correct as you can get w/o getting into a time machine.

1/2" is out there somewhere as I have scrounged a couple of pieces of the years.

1 was black and came out of a jet engine shipping crate IIRC the other is whilte and I picked it up at a fleamarket in Columbus OH. I make felt insoles for my shoes from them so I don't "feel the earth" so much...wouldn't turn losse of either though sorry.

Consider making it! You can get the wool on e-bay (I did).

That'll do, too... If you email me, Primvs, I can even tell you a couple of tricks that'll make it go a LOT faster...

Well I am wanting this to make period liners for my Roman helmets. Tim I thought about making, but I am covered up with other projects at this time.
