glass/acrylic
« on: July 18, 2013, 12:17:02 »
Hey looking for either a pc of glass 2'x6' 3/8"  or acrylic 2'x6' 1/2".  The height isn't as important as the length. If I can find a 125 or larger that has 1 good pc of glass in it that would work as well.


Thanks

Gary(Viggen) Just posted that he had a buddy who had a sheet of 8' 1/2" acrylic... Might want to check with him.

Yea.... A friend in Columbus has a sheet of 1/2 in acrylic available.  He said he would would sell it at whatever today's wholesale cost is.  Not exactly sure what that price would be.... Migh be cheaper to buy locally... Paya little more but not had to make the 120 mile road trip to Columbus.  However you probably would get a kick out of the several thousand gallons of water he has in his house.... He's old school wet dry filters though.....

I can ask him if you want a better idea on price
