Frank, You should ask the
plastic supplier if they can deliver a disk. Some suppliers use a water jet
cutter instead of a saw and can make a disk for the same price. Saves some hassle with
the big windows.. Emile Van: owner-personal_submersibles@psubs.org
[mailto:owner-personal_submersibles@psubs.org] Namens shellydalg@aol.com Hi Greg. I called the company you
recommended to me once, located in Florida for acrylic sheet called Sunray
Plastics. I was quoted $575 for 24X24X3 and $138
each for 16X16X2. That sounds do-able. Is this a good price
? I've been unable to find anyone near here
that even has sheets that thick. I have a machinist friend ( actually my
son-in-law ) who will cut out the disks, so annealing is the only detail
left out. I have a couple of leads locally that
look promising. I need to see their ovens and get some more info from them. Not having any other supplier to compare
with, I was just wondering if the price for the material sounds reasonable to
you. Thanks, Frank D. |
