General Stock

We keep sheets of stock in the standard size 600 x 400 mm as follows:

  • 3mm acrylic, opaque coloured, translucent coloured, clear
  • 5mm acrylic, translucent coloured
  • 3mm poplar plywood
  • 6mm poplar plywood

In addition, we usually have mirror acrylic and occasionally other fancy surfaces suitable for etching.

These colours can be paid for through the honesty box, which we do not make a profit on.
