Thickness marquee plexi?
« on: April 07, 2010, 05:24:56 am »
Just a quick question. How thick should the sheets of plexiglass be that the marquee print
gets sandwiched in between? Marquee size is 18cm x 63cm (7inch x 24inch).

Thanks!

Would 2 times 1mm work?
Guess they're standing straight up and won't be flexing much,
unless you push them.

i take 2x2 mm plexi for that and add 2 mm for the groove so the plexi doesnt fit in 2 snug.

2mm it is then! Sounds better. 1mm seems a bit thin on second thought.
Thanks for your input. :)
