![]() When I've bought acrylic I bought it at Industrial Paints and Plastics.
I'm told GEPolymershapes is possibly a better place to buy from though.

![]() I'v bought at GE Polymer Shapes a couple of times mostly because they are close to my home. They seem to be pretty decent to deal with.
As for cutting on the table saw, a plastics blade is the best choice, but probably too costly. Next best is a fine tooth carbide blade. I use a 10" 120 tooth, which works pretty well.

![]() Laird plastics is my preference - off 32nd NE. But I get deals there since we order a lot of acrylic from them for work
