I already spent many hours searching through the web, so I decided to ask. Does anyone know where (apart from jDrones shop) can I buy 12x12mm 0,5mm thick alu profiles?
Regards,
Tom

Been having a search and really struggling find anywhere that goes below 0.75 inch! This place doesn't have it but boy do they have a lot of stuff in, maybe worth an email?
Must be lost in translation :) Unfotunately Google is proving pretty insistent that I buy local (it keeps reverting me to UK companies!) but have a look at this place, if they don't have it maybe they can get it?

I guess if it is rigid and light enough any material would be fine. I've seen frames in quite a few different materials.
Good luck in your search! If you flew liek me you'd just order the ton from China :)

Also, have you tried your local model shop(s) as they might stock the smaller stuff?
Hmmmm,

I'll keep searching....
Hi,
Im in the UK, but searching for 12mm 0.5mm aluminium tubing produces loads of results! I had no trouble in sourcing here.
For example this was the first result I clicked on which contains 0.5, 1 and 1.5mm wall thickness:

Try tube instead of profile!
