Yeah, we told him to get in contact with Tim. His problem is no local providers of plastics. Basically we told him acrylic is fragile and will break. I never heard of metacrylite, but on search (didn't find much) I wouldn't recommend it because it sounds like it'd be more felixible than desired and probably not clear.
