I've not tried it yet but my wife suggested I use 4x8 sheets of foam insulation for my mockup. It seems to be cheaper than foamboard. |

Browse the IKEA for some cheap-ass table surfaces or so. They are king of hollow paper-sandwich panels. Ever stumbled over a LACK table? Did it survive? You can buy the board in plain format too, but no idea where. The Design Acadamy runs on this stuff for study models. |

I made my PocketGalaga from berch plywood. It's lightweight and sturdy. I simply glued the thing together. |

I don't know where bender is buying his but the stuff I found was really cheap. --- End quote --- I was under the impression he wanted to make full size mock ups which would require 1/2" foamboard in at least the 40x60" size, that stuff starts getting Pricey!!! and a 4x8' sheet :dizzy: crazy cash let me tell you, I've had to buy a couple --- End quote --- Ahh I should lean to read better he clearly states a scale model in the first post :banghead: :banghead: yeah regular foamboard is the way to go! and would be really cheap for a scale model |
