I am not sure if the options below are cheap, but I am considering them...

2.6mm - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carbon-Fiber...item19cc68fdc4

4.4mm - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carbon-Fiber...item1c22878760

3.5mm - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carbon-Fiber...item1c22878728

The 3.5mm one would be GREAT for a chassis build. 12" by 24" is definitely big enough to machine a chassis in its entirety.

I ended up buying a smaller section last night in 2mm. Its not thick enough to be a structural part, but it should be rigid enough with support to be a ESC or Radio Tray. Was also only $17 shipped.
