This is somthing i always forget about when i buy sheet styrene lol. Thanks!! This will save alot of money buying in a 4x8 sheet lol
If you have public transit in your town, you may be able to get heavy styrene for nothing. I got a sign off the side of a bus for nothing... It was about 2x6 before I chopped it up. Required a quick wash before it was useable, and only one side is good, since the sign is on the other (although the vinyl letting could be removed).
Hope that helps.
