Plastic For Displays

[doctor09210]

Im trying to make a display for a few figures, what plastic do you use for walls and floors

[mikeoz]

The plastic covered Dida sets are perfect for displays. All you have to do is design artwork that fits in them, or use Scott's artwork. They're a really good price, too.

but what is the plastic that he uses

i have the shapes all planed out and everything, just need plastic

Essentially vinyl, isn't it..?

[megoscott]

I don't know if you were talking about Didas or some other kind of display. Didas are vinyl covered chipboard. The idea is you buy the panel or displaybox and insert your artwork. So you don't have to buy plastic.

I've been working on the website today, by the way, new pictures of blank displays. Blank Displays | Dida Displays

Since you know so much and you want to make it 100% yourself, here's a video on how to make your own plastic using milk and vinegar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGxPhW06Jvg .
I'm sure you'll be able to figure out how to create the clear plastic sheets from the video.

There are all kind of different plastics depending on what you want to do.

I use acrylic for most things in my store:
Store - Laser Mego
