Default 8-inch long acrylic blocks??

Hi everyone,
I am converting some of my wheel stamps into long flat stamps with the cling foam, and I'm finding that my acrylic blocks are too short to accommodate them. Has anyone found a source for acrylic blocks for stamping that are 7-8 inches long? The longest I've found are 6 inches. Thanks!

I haven't unmounted my wheels, but I would probably try using my Cuttlebug or Big Shot/Big Kick acrylic plates. I cut into one and keep one clean for embossing, so I'd just use the unmarred one.

I usually get a set on sale 50% off at Michaels for $5.

Awesome, I knew I could count on you guys! Thanks! I will try the Cuttlebug acrylic plates first since I already have those - NEVER would have thought of that! If they turn out to be too wide to use comfortably, I'll check out the link from Gale. Thanks so much!!

I was wondering about the diagonal space on the larger blocks. But I think the sizzix sidekick borders plates would cover that distance too.

I have a 12" x 2" block I got from Frantic Stamper - it works well with both regular and jumbo wheels.
