    X pvc

    Does anyone have any experience with using expanded pvc to build racks?

    I've been looking for distributors for about 4 months now and can't find any useful information... My internet searches seem to bring me in circles.

    To anyone that has build a rack(or anything) out of X PVC, how much did you pay per sheet? And who was your supplier? Please include a link if possible!

    Thanks everyone!

    Try doing an internet search on Piedmont plastics. They are one of the biggest distributors of it. It is hard to give you a price per sheet, as the price seems to vary quite a bit around the country. Also, you can typically get it in two colors (white or black) and in many sizes from 1/8" to 1/2" (and maybe thicker, but I have never seen any thicker). It will typically run about $28 to $120 a sheet.

    Hope that helps,
