Western Star Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I wish to buy some ABS sheet in 0.25mm to 1.00mm thickness (roughly 10th to 40th) and rectangular strip of (say) 1mm x 2mm... this is in preference to styrene material. I am aware of The Model Shop neat Aldgate in London - any other sources from small suppliers? thank you, Graham Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Western Star Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 Thank you Guys, just looked at the EMA site and interesting to compare ABS materials between EMA and The Model Shop. The Model Shop seems to have a wider range of sheet thicknesses and of rectangular strip sections... whilst EMA appears to be cheaper (where comparisons of similar sections are possible). Unfortunately neither shop is on my doorstep (North Hampshire) so I shall have to continue with mail order - I am hoping to find a local source. regards, Graham Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
