Where do you purchase Acrylic?

Where do you guys get your acrylic and weldon in Vancouver? I'm in Poco actually if there is some place closer.

Industrial Plastics in Surrey and Richmond. There is a acrylic fabricator at the foot of main street in Vancouver that I have bought material from before, the owner is great and will custom cut the pieces for you. Plus he allows you to buy tubing in foot lengths as opposed to most places that will only sell you a 3 or 4 foot length minimum. I think the place is called Plex-Plus Mfg.

Thanks Bryan, I'll check em out. I'm looking to do a sump. Probably 36x18x22 high. Any idea what thickness would be appropriate?

Hello Ray,

Depending on the design, you can use different thickness. I typically would use 1/4" for your size. Sumps are more forgiving in terms of thickness due to the use of internal baffles as braces.

Have you bought your material already?

Thanks Titus, no I haven't purchased anything yet. Thought I'd check out the place Bryan was referring to, Plex Plus.
