    Does anyone feel there is a large or important difference in plexiglass and acrylic?

    I was looking at making some of my own actually. :p

    Turns out plexi is a form of acrylic, a brand name or something like that lol.

    Yeah Plexi is acrylic. Go with 3/16" or bigger. 1/8" is really weak.

    Have a tool that can cut perfect straight lines or order precut sheets.
    The solvent can be tricky as well.

    The guide I read said use weld on. Is that a good idea?

    Weld on might be a solvent. Not 100% sure.
    Some of it is thicker, others are thin like water. Pretty short working time.

    Any drips or splashes will show.

    Think more like a plastic weld instead of a glue holding 2 things together.
