Buying cardstock in dublin

Durz0 Blint

Hi guys

Looking to make some papercraft buildings, never done this before and I need some cardstock to do so.

Anyone know where I can get cardstock of the right thickness (apparently 110lbs is fine)

I also could do with some foamcore to mount the buildings bases, anyone know where to get that.
Also can I print cardstock using a regular printer? If not then what can I do?

All the best

Hi Durzo, I buy my cardstock in easons, I get 220 gsm which I think is about 110lbs and it goes through my printer fine. also the art and hobby shop sell cardstock and both shops sell the foam core

Hi guys

Looking to do a diorama and need cardstock of around 200 gsm for it

Tried reads and they don't have the thickness.

Anyone know where I can find it in Dublin?

Any idea how much it costs?

No Probs Durzo,

The Sheets of A4 cardstock are sold in pks of 40 and they cost about 4 euro and the foamboard I got was A3 size and it was about 3 - 4 euro a few weeks ago, the foamboard goes up in sizes to about A1 - A2 and from what I remember it cost about 8 euro for that size I think.

Anything else just let me know

Poppy

I always found it worth while going to K&M evans off Capel street, very good prices in there on most art and hobby supplies and you should be able to find what you are looking for. If you are on caple street turn at the luas tracks so you are going away from O'Connel street and it will be on your right before the fruit market and down a little alley.

I suggest it would be on your right if you are walking away from O'Connell St it's up a little lane. Evans are a little gem for art supplies.

Just took a look at their website and they look really good.
