help finding paper wrapped spacer supplier

Post by Jam »

Hi
Can anyone help me find where I can get paper wrapped spacers roughly 12mm x 6mm.
Lion only seem to stock 17mm x 6mm.
the other option is to make it myself, although not sure the best way of doing this ( any advise?) , really would like to buy some and save time.

Thank you

Or you could use foam board (3 or 5mm), with an appropriate colour mount board glued to it, then cut to 12mm strips - or however thick you want it....
