[TAGS] seeking durable material for tactile maps

[Cheryl Fogle-Hatch]

Hi everyone.

I am working with a mid-sized historical museum to create tactile maps
for display in their gallery. We are seeking more durable materials
than swell form or other paper products. They have a fabrication
department, and I'm considering recommending wood cut, or laser cut,
or vinyl or 3D printing (plastic).

I'm curious if you have encountered tactile maps made of durable
material, and if so what you noticed, liked, or disliked.

Thanks in advance.

Cheryl
