    Kustom PC's :idea:



    If that's not suitable - for whatever reason, drop Graeme (the gaffer) an email (sales@kustompcs.co.uk), and tell him exactly what you're after ;)

    Technology supplies (used to be in the sticky in this forum) does tinted red acrylic in relatively large sheets. P&P was about £8 last time I ordered there, but I ordered 6 large sheets of the stuff. Next day delivery too.

    Hi, SteveyG, what's their ordering system for Joe Public? Simple phone call? :confused:

    The Plastic Shop has red transparent, along with opaque and translucent reds, but only in full sheets (though they'll cut one into 10 pieces no extra charge). They'll also supply samples for £5 (refunded if you later make an order).

    Parent company appear to be Gilbert Curry, a load of useful-looking info available (eg, "The workshop manual gives help on working with Perspex, including advice on cleaning, drilling and how to cut Perspex sheets." :)

    Yes, you can order anything you want over the phone and pay by credit card.
