Styrene Sources - MasonJar - 08-04-2009
My last few sheets of styrene have come from old transit bus signs. They are 2' x 8', 0.060" ("sixty-thou") thick. They take a bit of washing up, and sometimes the vinyl lettering needs to be removed. But best of all, they are free!
At 60-thou, they are a little thick for "fine" work, but they make great roads, parking lots, internal braces for large buildings, roofs, and so on.
So check with your local Transit Authority.
