Hi,

 

I need to shim my thighs and I don't have any plastic material such as ABS, HIPS, and etc. I need a substitute that will support my thighs, any suggestions??

 

Someone told me to use for sale signs (the thicker ones).

 

Thank you :)

Or plastic from storage bins works too.

Anything white and plastic that matches... be creative. B)

If you have a dollar store, you can find a variety of affordable plastic in diff shapes and sizes. I have used there trash cans for many projects. Hope you find something that works!

Why not contact your armour supplier and see what he/they can provide.

Guaranteed colour match then. :D

wher in new england are you? i have a great hobby store here in marlboro, spare time hobbies on rte 20 they have plastic sheets, also home depot sells white for sale sign in pretty good thicknesses. i picked up a large handicap sign for $4 will work just fine, plus ata supplied me with 2 sheets of hips with my build. try evergreen plastics on line, you can order whatever you want.

 

try
