Hi Ivy,

    I buy my clear quartz in rods and cut it to the proper thickness for
    making triplets. I cut it about 1.5 mm, then flatten the cut side on
    a flat lap. 

    I buy it from http://www.creativegems.com

    A rod is $6.00, 6+ inches long, and about.5 inch to.75 inch in
    width. I have had great customer service, including over night
    shipping when I was in a triplet making class in Grady and Phyllis are
    wonderful people and I'm sure you will be happy with their product
    and service. They also have (or used to have) precut and pre-shaped
    caps in different sizes for triplets if you don't want to have to cut
    them, but I prefer the rods, much more versatile. 

Love and God Bless
