polarbear Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Does anyone know of a place here in Austin that will cut acrylic. I need the inner part of my overflow box cut down a little so that it fits into the back chamber of my biocube. I didn't want to chance cutting the glass and having it break so I'm doing the overflow box way. Anyways, any feed back would be helpful on places or even suggestions for someone here that can do it for me. One last thing, where can I buy the glue to glue the acrylic back together?

dustint21 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Got a pic of what you need cut? I bought my weld-on off ebay. I think there is a shop in Austin that sells it, maybe someone else knows the name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+dapettit Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I have bought and had acrylic cut at Lowe's. Not sure if they would cut a piece from outside the store but it's worth a call. Regal Plastic may cut it but sometimes they are finiky. Dave- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prof Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I can cut whatever you need. PM me if interested. Regal is the plastics store in Austin where I purchase my acrylic and supplies. You need a high tooth count blade with 0 degree set for best results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polarbear Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 Thanks for the offer Dave. I tried to send you a PM but it would go. Would you be able to cut a strip out of the overflow box? Im trying to use what I have so I need to make it smaller so that it fits into the biocube chamber. The width is to big so I need to cut the strip out then glue it back together. Please let me know if you can and what you thank about it. I can cut whatever you need. PM me if interested. Regal is the plastics store in Austin where I purchase my acrylic and supplies.
