Randy - do you have any interest in making a couple of joystick dustwashers out of plexiglass (if possible)?  I think we discussed this about 6 months ago but I had a baby and got a bit sidetracked.   ;D

Anyway, I plan on painting the bottom pink to match my cab so I need them to be clear plexiglass, roughly 2-1/4" in diameter with a hole in the center for the joystick shaft (I'm using a U360 so I'm guessing 1/4"-3/8").  Actually, I can drill out the center hole if it's easier.  Oh, and the plexiglass can be the standard 1/8" thickness.  I'll even order a bunch of them from you since it probably doesn't make sense to make just one - plus they will be great to use down the line...  no big deal if you can't do it - I have the materials but I'm having trouble finding a circle cutting jig for my router so I thought I'd ask...

Javeryh,

Did you try a place like Tap Plastics (the link is directly to the acrylic circles page)? Not only do they carry stock like you are looking for, but they can laser cut anything also.

Custom PGI's to place inside the translucent buttons.

But I don't know if we are talking "Elizabeth" or Platypus :)

Heh.  Congrats!  Drop me an email with the quantity you'll need and I'll figure up a price.  I have Red, Black, Blue, Yellow, Green, White and Clear material in stock.  The laser is running fine, so some dust washers should be no problem at this point.

Sweet!  I'm going to try making one with a drill and a hole saw but after that fails I'll drop you a PM.  I was thinking about ordering 10 of them or so - clear (I'll be painting the bottom pink to match my cab).   :cheers:

Neverending Project: That place is perfect - too bad shipping kind of kills it (they want like $8 to ship something that will fit in a envelope for $0.42 or whatever stamps are these days).  I'll probably use them for something down the road though - I've already bookmarked the site.  Thanks!

But of course we are talking the platypus side.

Much as we love our beloved Queen, that face is not unique to Australia (except the writing).

The platypus is where it's at!
