Modelling material for cabinet shell models?
Samstag:
I used foam board for a small cab mock-up and I think it's probably what you're looking for. I don't know where bender is buying his but the stuff I found was really cheap.
Ond:
Artboard or foamboard as its also called. Light, rigid easy to cut and perfectly smooth. That would be my choice. It is available in various colors as well though usually in either black or white.

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
Turnarcades:
Foamboard probably is the best solution, though I will have to check suppliers as the place I usually go for mountboard only has single-faced foamboard (ie. card front with foam backing, but no reverse card face). This should do the trick nicely - thanks all.

i 2nd this, i work with foamboard at work all the time. the .25 inch stuff works great, is rigid, and is easily cut-able with and exacto and ruler.
gator board is even more rigid but a little harder to cut/work with in my opinion.
both can be spray painted if needed
