Hey guys this may be the wrong forum to post it in but I just wanted to know where is the best place to buy plexi glass? I want to buy a sheet so I could do some case modding over the summer. Thanks for the help.

I think this is the best thread for that. Um, how thick are you looking for? Most window shops / glass shops have it, but only to a certain thickness (1/2" I believe). After that, it gets real hard to find.
Tas.

Your local glass shop should have plenty of it in stock and they will cut and mold it to fit what ever it is you need.

Home Depot has multiple sizes and thicknesses. Just go to any of the big hardware stores and you're sure to find it.

Lots on on-lin retailers sell window kits. Comes with the window and rubber molding. Some have fan holes pre drilled, some kits even come with LED fans, cutting tool, and UV cables.
Just google PC window kits and you will see plenty.

Some places like Lowes Hardware Stores sell this stuff. It varies by location.

It can be very hard to cut.

Some may be available from places like High School Shop Teachers or some kind of art supply/craft stores.
