I need some plexi glass to finish up a project. Probably going to be looking for 3/8th thick, about an inch tall, maybe 5 or 6" long, so not much. Chances are Ill have to buy a sheet of it, but where can I buy it?

Check out Midland Plastics:
5405 South Westridge Court, New Berlin, Wisconsin (WI), 53151
(262)-938-7000

They can usually make you stuff, but a lot of times they have scraps and smaller pieces in the lobby that you can pick up pretty cheap. When I worked for a sign shop, that's where we had a lot of work done.

yeah let me know. I dont need much. about the size of a DIN sized opening for a radio, just not quite as tall as that.
