Acrylic/Plastic Supply
 

For anyone who needs acrylic and related materials, check out PlasticWorks in Surrey (I think their webpage is plasticworks.ca). I bought some material from their store yesterday and the service was great. I had researched this material and the quote from IPP was almost double for the exact same product. For other products I was considering in this project (but did not purchase), the quotes again were approximately double from IPP. While waiting for PlasticWorks to cut my material, I looked around and they had a decent amount of acrylic tubing in stock, all appearing to be much cheaper than IPP.

FWIW they used to be a IPP store

Pretty much the same stuff, just significantly less expensive...

I wish these acrylic supply places would sell buy the foot, especially the larger diameter tubing.

thanks for the tip! i've been going to IPP in richmond and one of the guy there was quoting/charging me prices for thicker acrylic than i picked out and prices for different type of plastic (more expensive) than i picked out.

Any of you guys know a place out in Quebec, specifically Montreal? =)

there should be a GE Polymer distrbutor out there...

Is it average price for a sheet a 4'x8' acrylic to cost $400+taxes?

Depends what thickness.

half inch.

also, was quoted $250 for 3/8's, $140 for 1/4.

Sounds about right?

seems a little pricey to me, it comes out to more then buying an acrylic tank at the pet store...
