Default availability of sheet ABS or suitable substitute?

On Sun, 28 Jun 2009 13:16:05 -0400, against all advice, something
compelled Nate Nagel , to say:

Would styrene be strong enough?




Styrene is pretty brittle. It's usually mixed in with other
plastics to give it a shiny appearance. You'd probably be
happier with polypropylene. It has some flex to it, and is
stronger.

Don't know where you'd get it, though.
