For those interested here's the photo of the clear Ms. Pacman:

The same place has the lexan.  Yes, the price does go up!  Is it strong enough in the 1/4 or 3/8 in size for a control panel?  Will it bend too much?

MinerAl:
1/4 should be plenty strong for a CP.  Maybe even overkill.  Fishtanks that hold hundreds of pounds of water pressure are made of 1/4 plexi.

A 4x8 sheet of 3/4 inch clear plastic should weigh a (figurative) ton!  Shipping alone would be more than the novelty is worth. 

I think a clear plastic CP that's frosted on the inside and lit would be pretty darn cool.  Especially with an otherwise Tron theme...

I like the idea of 1/4 in lexan.  The question is does lexan bend more than plexi/acrylic?

Thanks,
Southpaw
