Hi all,
Does anyone know a BLACK fine-grained plastazote foam source in the US:
about 3/8" (9-10 mm) thick, suitable for lining a standard-size Cornell
drawer? This topic was discussed a while ago; however, I could
not find any up-to-date information.
Best regards,
Sergey

This is where I got my black polyethylene. It's much less expensive to buy a roll and cut it yourself.

On Amazon, this may work well : https://amzn.to/4hsxORz

That stuff is pretty tough, I don't think you'd get a pin in, certainly not easily.

Chuck and wollastoni,
Thank you both. I need a black background in one drawer only.
It looks like the plastazote is glued to the bottom of the drawer
and can not be removed easily. I will try covering the drawer's 
bottom with black paper instead of changing the plastastazote layer. 

i had that issue, just threw the new sheet over the old one, no ill effect.
