hi guys just as the topic states lol ( no pun ) but I am trying to find a good supply of Plasticard for a project I am working I need tubes as well as Flat sheets for printing but i cant find a Good supply I know its called by other names in other places and I was hoping to find a Good supply for cheap you know ( got to tighten the Strings on the wallet ) but its for my chaos army..and I really want to get into crossing over some SM stuff for my CSM army I am working on..

So..if you guys can point me in the right way...I would love ya lots..

PS I live in Utah so if its in the same state as me that would help also..but just as long as its in the US I don't care if its in Utah its a BIG bonus to me..( shipping ) thanks in advance..


PPS I did try and search the site but all I found want a post for Canada Not the US

You could probably find sheets of styrene at your local Home Depot (check out the yard signs and such). If you eBay then do a search for sheet styrene. What you will most likely find if you search is http://www.evergreenscalemodels.com/ or http://www.plastruct.com/. Not the cheapest but the best.

Head to your local model train shop, hobby shop or model shop. They will have what you are looking for.

The above mentioned brands are the two you will most likely find most easily.

I'm telling you, check out TOWER HOBBIES!

Awesome selection, preview pics of what you're buying and OK prices as far as I can tell!

In a pinch, you can use For Sale signs for plasticard. Works well.

I use the plastic packaging from the Arkham Asylum Collector Box. Nice and sturdy, especially when buttressed with smaller pieces of the same material.
I am very happy with it for armor plates, but it is a bit too thin for things like choppas, though. I just glue two pieces together.
I am not saying buy this for the plastic, but if you have it, use it.

Also, I have found that two business cards glued together work nicely for small, intricate pieces.
And a business card with a paper template glued to it is works insanely well for doing paper craft.

Can you tell I have a lot of extra business cards?

thank you for all your help guys I will check out the Links ASAP...
