[Alberg30] Re: Read/Peidmont plastics

[Kevin Blanc]

Yup. I went there to buy plastic for the lazarette hatch I'm rebuilding. 
I widened my search to plastics in Rockville and found the listing, ran 
the address through Mapquest (because I knew how to get to Read, but 
didnt' remember the road name) and it traced the familiar path off 
Randolph Road.


They have a nice tinted plastic they call Bronze. Might end up using 
that instead of clear. Pricing is interesting. To a degree, it seems 
like it molecularly priced: 3/8 is exactly 50% more per square foot than 
1/4, 1/2 is double the price. But the price for transluscent is double 
that for clear. I wonder if machine sanded clear would have the same 
appearance.... I'll have to try that on scrap.
