I gotta find a place where I can buy some styrene(poly, which is better) plastic, in which I can use to cut with an exacto knife...like an internet shop.

Bump, is styrene good? And can someone link the aluminum in home depot, can't find it.

styrene is a somewhat soft plastic (99% sure), so some people use things (such as fiberglas) to reinforce it, but not all. around .080 is most ideal. and I have no clue where to find aluminum at home depot online, can't find it

Super sweet, and I can't find the aluminum either...even though I need it greatly.

oh yeah, http://www.unitedaluminum.com/ has some aluminum... not home depot, but close enough.

other:http://www.arbormetals.com/products/aluminum.html
http://www.amerimet.net/
just look "aluminum coil" or "aluminum strip" on google if you want other stores.

(home depot does (99% sure) have aluminum in stores though)
