Diamond plate patterned styrene sheets?
Posted by sdsmith823 on Wednesday, September 16, 2015 1:17 PM

Hi guys, I'm looking for styrene sheets with a 1:25 scale diamond plate pattern on them. Does anyone know where I could find them online for a reasonable price?

 

I'm working on a model my employer asked me to make of one of our fleet pick up trucks which feature a diamond plate tool box in the bed. I know there are aftermarket resin kits available but I've never felt that comfortable in my resin skills. And also I really enjoy scratch building detail parts like this....

So if anyone knows a god source to get sheets of this stuff or if anyone has some sitting around they're willing to part with I'd appreciate any help I can get. 

 

Thanks....

Plastic makes sheet of diamond plate

I build in 1/25 and recommend O scale (which is 1/48) but looks more correct than the huge 1/16 scale. May want to try the G scale (1/22.5)
