I just found a German online-shop selling a lot of hobby material and just wanted t ask about the thickness of certain materials... So, what thickness should a sheet of plasticard have, what should be the diameter of plastic rods and tubes and is 5mm too thick for a sheet of foamcore board?
Thanks in advance!

Hm, yes, sort of... So, foamcore for buildings, plasticard for armour, swords and vehicles and plastic rods for bionic limbs and weapon shafts.

I use 1/4 inch foamcore for buildings, so 5mm should be ok. If anything, it may be a little too thin.
