[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1769492, member: 18945"] I recommend using polycarbonate instead of acrylic. You can saw your own with a hand jig saw if using polycarbonate. There is a trick to successfully sawing acrylic tho. You must saw fast or refrigerate the plexi before hand otherwise the material gets hot and melts back together behind the cut. ( Lexan is the usual name for polycarbonate and plexi is name usually associated acrylic) Acrylic is harder than poly, but much more brittle and it is quick to yellow from sunlight and develop tiny hairline cracks. Polycarbonate is more expensive but softer, easier to work with, saw or bend and is more durable in regards to UV. (I used to work in a fixture plant and worked with both poly and acrylic a lot and really really hated the acrylic) [/QUOTE]
