# There are a lot of materials / tools with very interesting…

There are a lot of materials / tools with very interesting properties, which are difficult to price/buy. In some cases, it just takes a fair bit of time googling to source them. However, in many cases,even if you find a source, the suppliers won\'t even give you prices or the location of their distributors unless you call or email them. Sometimes they don\'t even want to talk to you unless you can buy industrial / pallet quantities.\
\
Companies like Inventables help, but there\'s still frequently a gap. If any of y\'all know of people who work with the following materials or know of a local source, please get in touch.\

ETFE film\
Foam cement generators\
EPS grinders\
Geopolymer foam\
Isofloat syntactic foam\
Magnesium oxide wallboard\
Basalt mesh, fibers, and rebar\
