    Default Large Acrylic blanks

    Having seen the 12 gauge over-under shot gun size I have tried to locate a sizable blank large than 19mm to suit more like 25mm.

    Does anyone know where I can get them

    I am after a Red or black

    Thanks

    Ray

    Yes Mark does but normally they are the Exotic type and I am after a particular colour.

    Not even Pops Shed has them acrylics big enough and he's selling the kits.

    You could try Cadillac Plastics at Silverwater Ray. They would have what you are after, but not sure if they sell retail.

    No probs. If black and red, do they want swirling or chunky? If red, what red, bright red, scarlet red or maroon or blood red etc

    Default "in house" - custom blanks

    Ray,
    Just to let you know we can help you out... as we do have a wide range of "in house" - custom blanks. ATM they are small production runs, but in the NY we will have a range or about 10 fixed colours and build from there.


    Here's a link to stuff we posted some time ago to give you an idea on the colours we can do..

    Custom Made Resin Blanks - International Association of Penturners

    (Also have RED Crush in 20mm in meter lengths)
