Hi Vince! Yes, I have dealt with them a few times. They are OK, but watch out for the long lengths of styrene...one of my orders came in a box that was a wee bit undersized and they gently curved the styrene to fit into the box. Now none of the styrene was unfit to use, but most of the aforementioned pieces have a nice little bow in them. OK for my purposes, but maybe not for yours.

If you order, and if you need them perfectly straight, I would use the customer notes box and specify this.

HTH,
Ken
