I haven't been able to fine any in 5x10. I buy 4x8 and cut to fit the zones on my table. Let me know if you need a supplier for 4x8.

Cedar Creek has a location in Springfield. I can sometimes get it from them here in NWA but it's pretty spotty. Seems they don't stock it all the time, but occasionally have a few sheets left over from someone else's large order. Think we got a sheet from Hogan Hardwoods once also.

Have one sheet of 18mm 5x8 trupan on shelf if that would do you any good. I cut 4x8 to fit zones like rww and seal the edges to reduce vacuum bleed over to other zones.

Smiley, I got my 1/2" 4 x 8 Trupan from Liberty Hardwood in Des Moines, Iowa. They are located in 9 midwestern states. I see that their web site is under construction, but they do list a phone number 888 908-0852. Kern

I think all of my suppliers are mentioned above. Hogan Hardwoods doesn't have the trupan brand but I have used there ultra light mdf of another brand and it works just fine.
