[Elecraft] plexiglass

[Rick Commo]

Don raises a very good technique that use frequently.  In fact yesterday I stopped by the place and
pick up a piece of 5/16 that was roughly 14 x 6 inches for the whole wallet breaking sum of
something around $1.00.  I was charged by weight, although sometimes they charge by area as well.

For something like the sides of the K2, using 1/8" should be OK.  If you couldn't find something in
the scrap bin and pick it up for a couple of dollars I'd be amazed.

Cheers,

John,

Look in your phone book yellow pages for a local commercial plastics
supplier.  They often have cut-offs for sale at modest prices.  If you have
to buy a whole sheet, take along a wheelbarrow full of money.
