I'd like to start using acrylic for some stuff, but I don't know where to get it, especially some of the really neat types that some people seem to use.

I have 200µm PSA backed clear acrylic for making liners, but I too would like to know where some of these really funky acrylics come from, I can find them as pen turning blanks, but but as a sheet material.

Love the planets/circles design btw, really nice

Pauly, absolutely no offense taken! If I can find it, I may end up making something similar from acrylic. I hadn't worked in G-10 very much so I wanted to try a little more difficult project.

Thanks for the comment on the circles Paddy. I wanted to do a ribbon of green the length of the scales, but I don't have a jewelers saw, and my scroll saw just wouldn't do it, so I went to the drill press and made do. It turned out nice I think.

Amazing what one finds in the Workshop - I was looking for something completely different when I found this:
Delvie's Plastics Inc.: Transparent Plexiglass

That's some neat stuff! Thanks.
