I though these guys looked promising - haven't contacted them yet but the stock on their website looked pretty comprehensive.

If you find anything very good remember to post back here... Who knows, perhaps you'll find something Vik missed. According to [forums.reprap.org] ABS is ~NZ$40 + postage for 100m roll.

Imagin Plastics (the website mentioned above) are also not able to supply CAPA either.
I suspect our only option is to import it.
I purchased some ABS from CARR to use in setup and first tests (when I finally get my machine working).
Reece, how is the HDPE working out? Print quality etc.

Hi Vic,
I see your activity on the threads tonight...
I'm still expecting to be asking you for some PLA and/or ABS in due course,
My machine's still coming together though. Some beastly problems with the default linker file for my 32 bit micro, but I'm working around them for now.
I think Catalyst are a wellington Co, might be interesting to compare machines at some stage later.

I bought some polymorh from Jaycar today, while I was at lunch (the shop is just a short 10 minute walk away), heated some a few pellets, which turned nicely transparent, and was not hot to touch, and fun to play with.
To play with I put a small 0402 (smaller than a quarter the size of a grain of rice) sized LED into the lump of polymorh, let it cool and plugged it into the power supply (2.5V @ 0.02mA), the polymorph does well to spread light from the LED all the way around the polymorh lump fairly evenly.
