brad,
    I got mine from an art supply store. The strips already are coated with plaster , all you have to do is dip them in hot water .

Brad mine comes in a package and you need about 1.5 packs to do a mould. The stuff I have is made by Activa Products inc.

 Any arts supply store should have plaster bandages for making face moulds. Just tell them that is what you want to do. I have found the ones in the packs tend to work better because they seem to be a thinner weave. This seem sto hug the contours and stick a little better when doing the moulds. Also don't make it too wet when applying just enough to be soft.

If you allready have your plaster, just get regular gauze bandage rolls. 3 rolls will be enough. It is all I ever used.

It's cheaper if you get it from a medical supply shop than an arts supply shop, though youm have to buy it by the case.

Thanks guys - should see the result in a couple of days.
Brian thanks for the link. Is it the "RIGIDWRAP" that you use? Which size?
