Need 2mil coroplast vendor in US
I'm making some modifications to a Bowman's Hobbies "Javelin" HLG foamie glider and am planning to replace the balsa tail feathers with 2mil thick coroplast for better durability.
I can find the much thicker 4 or 5 mil coroplast at signage companies, but no one locally seems to carry the thinner 2mil thickness I've used on other models.
Does anyone know of a US vendor that sell small(ish) sheets of 2mil coroplast?

I have ordered 24"x48" sheets from http://www.harborsales.net/.
Cheap prices but shipping is as much as the coro.
There are links on the SPAD site ,http://www.spadtothebone.com/, to suppliers.

Any local sign company can add a few sheets of 2 mil to thier next order of coroplast. (they go through 4 mm like crazy) If you find a nice guy operating the shop...they'll let you have it in 4X8 sheets at thier cost if you pay in advance.
Tell them what its for... It doesn't hurt to ask and olny takes a few phone calls to find the sign shop in your area which will cooperate. (and then you recommend them to anyone you know that needs a sign for something.
Get them to cut you some vinyl letting for your airplanes...
