Do you guys have a recommendation for where to buy the plastic he mentioned for design templates

I don't recall the mention, but if you check out hobby shops and, maybe, kid's art supplies?

They're usually good sources of the heavier drawing/drafting paper in large sheets, also cardboard, that can be very handy for dummying up sheet metal work and general pattern making.

I had to go back and find what I was talking about, but he talked like the polycarbonate sheets he uses will hold their shape if you fold or bend them and I didn't know what to look for when buying it

Any plastics shop should be able to provide it, here in Australia we have it at our local hardware stores and its actually 0.8mm thick, Have you tried Home Depot?
