Title: 1/64" ply
Post by: Gordon Tarbell on May 31, 2008, 10:53:48 PM

Looking for sources to obtain 1/64 ply sheets. Would like to find it in larger sheets (4'x8') the stuff in the hobby shop is too $ . I think it was midwest ($ 44.95 for a 24"x48"

I just checked the Sig web site; 1/64x24x48 inches @ $44.99.

A little pricey........

Cheers,
Jim

Aircraft Spruce is THE place to get this stuff, especially with the demise of Lone Star. See:

Really nice folks to deal with, too . . . .

National Balsa shows 12 X 48 at 11.83 I didn't see what ply it was rated at.

Typically the 1/64 ply I have used is three ply. I have never seen more than three ply but I live a sheltered life!
