Hi all,

I am looking for a company that sells 3/8" (9mm) thick Red (number 2793) acrylic sheet. Preferably cut-to-size.

I have tried the following websites (I removed the .com at the end of each so it does not look like a spam list):
regal-plastics
alro
curbellplastics
estreetplastics
usplastic
grainger
tapplastics
altecplastics
acmeplastics
eplastics
plasticproductsinc

Interestingly enough, Walmart and Amazon have it from a 3rd party supplier, but each is 'out of stock' :(

I know it exists, because Jeff @ Lifereef used some on a skimmer I had him make for me.

Which company/supplier did I miss ?
