Anyone know of a supplier that carries Pink cast acrylic in 1/8" thickness.

I know that Tap plastics has it, but they are a west coast supplier. You may be able to order it and have it shipped id no one closer has it.

Thanks for the reply Joe. I did call Tap Plastics and they do carry pink but it is a transparent color. My customer wants words cut from the acrylic to hang on the wall so it needs to be opaque.

According to Sloan's Woodshop web site, they carry 1/8" solid pink cast acrylic.

Oddy enough, they used to have to special order that translucent for me.
I got some solid, opaque "baby-girl" pink from them before, at the Bellevue WA store.

All I can go by is what the guy at Taps told me yesterday when I called them.

I may be missing something here, but If your just cutting pieces out of it, why would it need to be cast? Extruded may be easier to find, and it cuts just fine..

Mike,
Check Solter Plastics (http://solterplastics.com/plastics/colored/) in Los Angeles, they have a few different shades of pink and other colors.
