1. A method of making a composite material, comprising:
(a) extruding a base material into a sheet of base material;
(b) depositing a plurality of individual fibers onto a surface of the sheet of base material before the sheet of base material has fully hardened; and
(c) pressing the individual fibers into the surface of the sheet of base material in order to form a sheet of composite material,
wherein the sheet of composite material has a bottom layer of the base material alone and a thinner top layer into which the individual fibers have been embedded.
