Acrylic / styrene glazing.

Post by GeoSpectrum »

I've been asked to make a number of frames with acrylic glazing, the stuff I have used before is, I think, 1.2mm think and is a bit flimsy for my liking. Can anyone recommend and supplier of 2mm or at least something which isn't too flexible, and at a reasonable price?

thanks

Arqadia sell it in sheets as well. 2 mm acrylic and styrene can easily be scored and snapped.
