    Re: Acrylic as a screen material

    Acrylic sheet is working for me. Like I said in the other post you just heat it with a disposable blow torch you should be able to buy at any hardware store and then rake across it every which way with a hole saw. Might want to use at least eighth inch acrylic as it will deform when you heat it. To get it back into shape when your done roughing it up flip it over and heat the other side and press it back flat again. Mine is one sided but plenty of area for my purposes.

    Getting nice green stuff after two cleanings of the brown slimy stuff. Ever notice when you have a scratch in your DT glass that the algae always likes to grow in that scratch and becomes a hassle to clean. Same principal accept on a much deeper and wider scale and exactly what I was hoping would happen for a change.

    I bought mine from the UK (I live in Sweden). And the postage was about 5 dollars. http://www.minervacraftsandfabrics.co.uk/
