I have never seen bigger than that in styrene. Could you build your own out of styrene strip, with a brass tube in the center for strength? It would be stronger and more rigid than plastic.

Just use sheet styrene, laminate the sheets yourself with CA to whatever thickness you require, mark out with a drafting pencil and a straight edge and cut out the triangles. Wa la!

Hello Pat,

Try Midwest Products Co. LTD.

They have a product called Super Styrene which has two different triangular shape one with 90 degree angles and one with 60 degree angles. The biggest size they carry is 0.197 inches / 5.0 millimeters.
