I could not find it on the wiki and I was wondering where everyone gets their plastic for the vacuum former. I am looking for abs, and high density polyethylene. Thanks
Allied Plastics Supply has been my go-to for plastics. It’s also 5mi from DMS:
10828 Shady Trail
Dallas, TX 75220
@Lampy purchases locally too, what was the name of the place? I have been ordering some materials from amazon.
They are:
151 Mark Ln
Royse City, Tx 75189
Don’t think they carry ABS sheet, just Acrylic (Plexiglass), Polycarbonate (Lexan) and Polystyrene.
Reminder: Do not use DMS account as it is tax exempt and can only be made for DMS purposes or a DMS Credit Card.
They may or may not offer a DMS Member discount, just ensure you’re paying Sales Tax.
Thanks
What do you order from amazon I could not find anything?
Threw a “plastics suppliers” page into the wiki. I’d love to know what search terms you used so I can try to “keyword spam” the page to help it turn up in searches…
Added your link on the Vacuum Former Page.
Thanks @jast for putting together the list!
Thanks for doing this. I added your link to the lasers page.
I use Regal Plastics located in Irving
BTW, Since when do we have a vacuum forming machine?
Are you kidding? You missed the great vacuum former debate? We’ve got a really nice one. And classes are being scheduled regularly!
I guess I did!
One more class to take!
You can read about it on the vacuum former page.
