used to be that 3/4 plex was more affordable but nowadays that aint the case....anyone ever use 1/2 plex in their enclosures with any drawbacks? there is a big difference in price.....about 125 a sheet difference.....

You use plexiglass??
Ive never had any luck with plexi. Its to brittle, way to brittle. Just like Acrylic, I think its a form of it...
I advise Plolycarbonate. Wether its lexan, tuffak or one of the other name brands. Its strong and easier to cut/drill.
I want to do a vox with a plexi window. Im going to use stainless poslished screws and polish out the drilled holes... hehe
