    Hi
    I am looking for some pieces (6 or 8) of acrylic or as I still call it "perspex" about 20"x 10" to make a shelving unit anybody know where to get them ? ideally offcuts at a good price I would say 3-5 mill would be grand.
    Thanks

    Yea, 5mm polycarbonate would be good, I got lots of it from
    http://goldstarplastics.ie/ you could rock up with a cutting list and they'd prob cut it for you on the spot.

    But if it is a shelf in a bathroom etc, in my experience glass is better - it just looks better, and when you clean it with Widowlene or whatever, it just looks...better. Plus, it doesn't scratch. Get glass from local glazing supplier, check golden pages.

    Are you using it for the doors or for the shelves?
