Acrylic sources in Nashville?

BuaidhNoBas · Mar 10, 2016

Hi guys,

I'm getting ready to build a custom sump for my 30g cube. I need to find some acrylic; anybody have any sources for reasonably-priced acrylic locally? I need 3/8" cast in clear, at least 18 x 15 inches, and will need some 1/4 or 3/8" black as well.

Thanks a lot.

I've ordered precut acrylic pieces from eplastics.com before and had no issues. I'm unsure of any local sources.

Thanks for the info. Did they also send you the scraps left over? Was shipping expensive?

Yes, you get the scraps.

My pieces were large and required create shipping and was around $35 (IIRC) but with smaller pieces I'm sure the shipping would be less.

Thanks, I ended up getting some acrylic from them (didn't get enough with the initial order, of course). They were nice, prices weren't too bad.

FYI they said they would sell 1/4 and 3/8 inch clear by the square foot, for all others (like 1/4 inch black) you need to buy a whole sheet. They will cut it up for you though.
