I've never used the stuff myself before. I was at a webpage the other day and found some sheets (various thicknesses). It's made by Penguin (http://www.penguinrc.com/products/other/graphiteplate.shtml). I hope this helps.

Now that I'm Mac-free, I can post quickly and easily! Expect to see much more of me from now on.
By the way, most of Steve's posts are created by trained monkeys, not Steve himself. You think he has time to be on the internet all day?

heres a thing with cheap graphite sheets. they have 8x12" for like $15 plus $4 for shipping, and then like 12x12" for $20 plus ths shipping. the site takes FOREVER to load., atleast on my computer it does. i am hopefully gonna make a graphite chassis for my electric rustler, and now i think i can since i found it so cheap. its like .075 thick or something. thats the same thickness as tower hobbies has, in 8x12" sheets only, for $45!!!! maybe the parts **** , but someone from maxxtraxx reccomended them to me on my post. and i posted here about my chassis too. whenever my mom uses up all the pics on her camera, ill have pics of my template. i still have to figure out someway to make a top deck/brace that wont get in the way of my electronics.
heres da link (u thought i forgot huh!!?) http://rcparts.homestead.com/partslist.html
