Because I live in the US, any card stock that I buy is not sold by GSM, but rather a weight so I am not very familiar with anything else. I use 65 pound card stock. Using an online converter I believe that equals 176 GSM, maybe someone else can help us with this. I think a lot depends on the type of paper (cover stock, card stock, etc). Since I only buy the 65 pound card stock, I don't have to personally worry about these things.

There are a lot of small parts and rolling of tubes/surfaces and the 65 pound cardstock works very well for me. I find that if you use a lighter (thinner) paper, the model crushes easily and does not provide enough support. If you use a heavier (thicker) paper, the small parts are hard to form and the tubes do not roll easily.

Bet to you and thank you for choosing my Enterprise model to build.
