BigBlockLyle Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Hey there guys, I'm in need of one-half of a sheet of HO scale diamond plate styrene. I am wanting to build a toolbox for the back of a pickup and it needs to be a smaller pattern. I have a few big rig parts that I can trade. The reason I'm asking here is because there isn't a place around here that I can get some at. Thanks Benjamin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semi Trailer Mechanic Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 What's goin' on... Benjamin I use Plastruct 1/100diamond plate. My local hobby shop carriers this it can be purchased directly from Plastruct. http://www.plastruct.com/Home.html Here's a current project I've got on the workbench where that diamond plate is being used.

Southgate Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Here's a supplier on eBay. This is the nicest diamond plate available in 1/25 scale. There are two 4"x8"sheets in the package. http://cgi.ebay.com/Plastic-Diamond-Patter...%3A1%7C294%3A50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemodeler Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 The Don Mills treadplate shown in that Ebay ad is the most accurate and in scale. He also sells slam locks to use with the treadplate when creating boxes and bodies. If you want to deal with a hobby shop that sells the treadplate, The Model Empire in Milwaukee does mailorder on it and other items. (www.ModelEmpireUSA.com) or call then at 414-453-4610. Great folks to deal with and a neat place to visit if you are ever in Milwaukee. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
