Where is a good place to buy Acrylic?

[follow3]

Hey Guys,

I don't know of any local suppliers, so I am hoping to find an online supplier of acrylic.
Anyone know any good links?

Thanks as allways,
Steve

Steve,

There is an acrylic store near me. Acme plastics:
Acme Plastics, Inc.
5655 A General Washington Dr.
Alexandria, VA 22312
Phone: 703-642-3030, 800-678-1991 (toll free)
Fax: 703-750-2463

They not only cut products for you ,but you can also get killer prices on left over stock.

Then again, you don't know if their left over products are cell cast or not.

there is a BIG place in Richmond...bout 2hrs from you (i think mechanicsville), thats where my LFS guy got it from.

they ship, or you can go pick up. i honestly dont remember what kind of acrylic he got though (brand name).

they had pretty good prices too! better than most i've seen post here i think.

Either way you will want cast acrylic......Acrylic has skyrocketed in the last 5 years......When I bought the sheets for my corner tank a sheet of 1/4'' 4'X8' was just over $50 no they want $137 local.....I know a place on line that has it for cheap and will cut and send to you.....I will see if I can find the link...
