Hi Fenderjack
In the Printed Circuit Board Industry we use laminated E- Glass Sheets , we use small panels sizes,, but the laminate maker, makes sheets up to 5'x 7' size and then cut them down to sizes that we use. Most are copper clad,, but you can get it unclad as bare laminate. Thickness range from 0.001" up to 0.250". At one time they even made color Laminates. they are also vacuum laminated.
Thank you
Jim
