Where to get Custom Acrylic

[tyfurious]

I'm planning out a custom midifighter, anyone know a good place to get a custom acrylic sheet? I'm in the Dallas area, but being local means just short of nothing to me if they'll ship it. ^.^

Lowes and Home Depot both sell big sheets of clear acrylic.

What about getting them cut? I've got the tools, but I don't feel comfortable being as specific as I need it to be for buttons and so forth to fit properly. I could pull it off if needed, but I would prefer to find somewhere with a precision cutter (or whatever you call those things ;P).

There's a thread on here with a member that does custom acrylic cutting in different colors, I couldn't find it though.

Ive had good luck with local mom and pop style palces here in philadelphia. a quick google revealed http://www.edplastics.com/index2.html which looks like a small custom operation. At the very least they should be able to cut to size just about any color acrylic in 1/8 to 1/4 inch for around 5-15 dollars tops.
