    I am after a cheap relatively thin plastic board that is easy to cut (similar to L plate type thickness). Can anyone recommend a supplier and product?

    Many thanks and a Happy New Year!

    Regards

    Nick

    Nick, HIPS is probably a reasonably good bet but not 100% sure if it comes as thin as some of the "L" plates I have seen, it’s what is used for a lot of the health & safety signage you see.
    Most of the big suppliers will sell it in different forms (full sheet, cut to size in bulk) so probably best to try some of them.
    Sorry can’t be more specific but it depends on what sort of size or quantities your after.

    Robert Horne and also Amari Plastics will do it.
    I have bought clear acetate type versions of what you are probably after from both companies in the past year or so. think sheet sizes are 8ft x 4ft and 3mx2m its not expensive.

    just "spotted" martins nose there too Denise. :lol1:
