Stencil materials, by My Name is Frank on Jun 17, 2009 14:02:58 GMT 1, Hi all, we were recently at Upfest 09 and noticed a lot of artists using some nice looking brown card for their stencils. It looked very durable (with a possible wax coating). Could anyone shed any light as to where we could get our hands on some?? Cheers, Leftery ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Stencil materials, by hero on Jun 17, 2009 18:30:28 GMT 1, what idiom said
however...in my experience it is harder to cut than thick paper, which is what i tend to use, and you can "double cut" with the thick paper...getting 2 stencils for the price of 1!
