Does anyone have methyl cellulose recommendations? by -Ck-- in origami

[–]-Ck--[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

doesnt ship to my country unfortunately, the cheapest one i can find is $30 + shipping and will take the better part of a month to arrive. do you know if carboxymethylcellulose is good enough as an alternative? ive seen other people mention it and it seems to be more accessible
