For the next wave of my buggy build I'm looking for a couple of things. I can order online but was looking for something local. Man the local companies stink for advertising online. I'm looking for a piece of 1/2" thick 24" x 48" polycarbonate (Lexan). I know I can order it online but I was hoping to buy local. I haven't found anything local online ... I'm also looking for a couple of sheets of 5052 Aluminum 48" x 96. Online I found Reynolds (never been there) and Boyd's (looks like they might have it). Anyone know a better source for either? | |

Call Joe at Engineered Cutting Solutions. 479-200-9099 and tell him Justin sent you!!! He has a waterjet and cuts special materials all the time. I know he cuts plastic for the local food processing plants. | |

I could help you out on the aluminum if you don't mind driving down to Van Buren to get it. I am making a steel order next week and could ask about the aluminum then. I buy all my steel from Ryerson in Ft. Smith now and I'm getting pretty good prices since I buy anywhere between $600-$1,000 worth of plate every 4-6 weeks. Majority of their stuff is Made in the USA too. | |

Thanks guys! My wife called Joe today and he said he'd get back with a price. I think she also called Ryerson and got a quote for a 4x10 sheet of AL. It was about $40 more than internet $ on a 4x8 sheet... so probably in line with the per-pound $. | |
