QUOTE(advocado @ Oct 19 2009, 01:32 PM) I saw somewhere the glue is special & not suppose to be sold to public I think it's hazardous when not applied. Where did you buy the arcylic sheets, the size & how much they cost? Cutting the sheets perfectly needs some skill & good cutting tools. today i will go to hardware shop see if they sell the acrylic cement and cutting tools or not. i will check this evening after work. I bought 2 sheets 4'x6' transparent at a advertising trading warehouse. purposely go there ask if they sell 1 or 2 sheets or not. I bought it at rm110 per sheet. 3mm thickness. Lucky my car avanza can fit in the whole sheet. bought it last saturday. Anyhow...i am selling off 1 sheet of acrylic cos just found i only need 1 sheet only. miscalculation.

QUOTE(BeastX @ Oct 19 2009, 02:30 PM) a.k.a as dichloromethane CH2Cl2, most chem/bio labs should have it.. Its carcinogenic... so long you don't swallow.. it'll be fine... I've cut and stick acrylic since 6 years ago.. very little is needed to melt/reassemble the molecules of the acrylic sheets... With clean cuts of say 0.5m only 1 or 2 droplets are required. Thanks for give me the name. can you tell me when we can get it.
