    Looking for HDPE

    I am looking for a source for 2.5" Square Black HPDE. The usual sources, McMaster, Enco, Google, have only led me to 2" max thickness or if I find 2.5" it is natural color.

    Can anyone point me to another source?

    Thank you.

    I don't know of any sources but I do know it's possible to melt and mold your own very thick block if you wanted. Here's an instructable on how to do that. Making Blocks out of HDPE milk jugs To improve the process you would want to add a little pressure also I don't know why they use oil in that tutorial you can just melt it, just be careful not to burn it. But if anyone knows of a source lol that would be a lot easier.
