Plastruct introduced a line of styrene shapes a few years ago. The shapes in this line are, if I remember correctly, white plastic. These will bond with the usual plastic cements like Testors, Tenax, etc. The line also includes imbossed sheets representing brick, stone, block, sheet metal, etc. The original (grey colored) line is ABS plastic and does need a different solvent/adhesive than the typical styrene. I feel that the cross sections on the styrene line are much better than on the ABS line. I had previously stuck with wood shapes rather than using the overly thick ABS on my scratch building in the past but now use the new shapes. Hopes this clears things up. Doug
