Look in the phone book under plastic/polycarbonate suppliers. I've got two that I know of in my area, one specializes in plexiglass (not what you're looking for ), the other specializes in resin/epoxy sheet goods.

if you want the "greenish" stuff, you want to look for FRP G10.

Yes it's the greenish stuff I'm looking for. I like to make my home parts, like this shock tower (right).

But plastic suppliers only sold big sheets (50x40 inch), I'm looking for a "hobby sized" sheet (12x10 inch 1/8 thick for example).

Thanks .

The local supplier I mentioned had a "scrap" room that had cuts of all sizes of everything they carried. You might check around a little more, one shop in your area may have the same thing.

Hahaha good luck, if you find some let me know, I couldn't find anything in non-industrial quantities (they also declined to look in there scrap rooms).
