Prices are definitely good. They definitely have more variety of products than most sites I've looked at. Next time I need an acrylic piano hinge I know where to go. :)

Title: Re: white plexi glass, where??
Post by: mountain on March 20, 2007, 01:06:28 pm: No problem. I have ordered from them three times and they usually ship the same day. I think the longest it took for me to get the package was 3 days.

Good luck!

They also have the smaller 3 x 9:

Just wanted to update you on this, I just ordered some white acrylic, I am having it custom cut to the size I need. They charge an extra $10 to do this, very reasonable I think.

Post by: mountain on April 09, 2007, 02:29:38 pm: Did you order from US Plastics? I ordered two 12" x 12" Black acrylic from them last Wednesday at 3pm. The package was sitting on my desk Thursday at noon via UPS ground. I live in the same state but still.... :applaud:
Title: Re: white plexi glass, where??
Post by: squirrellydw on April 09, 2007, 03:09:07 pm: Oh yeah, yes I ordered from US Plastics. THey said it should ship out today or tomorrow depending on when they cut it.
Title: Re: white plexi glass, where??
Post by: squirrellydw on April 11, 2007, 09:32:00 pm: Well I got my plastic today, that was quick. I had them cut it to size and it is perfact. I highly recommend US Plastic, thanks for recommending it.
