Marilyn:
You can get Plexi at any glass shop that sells mirrors, car windshields, etc.
You can also get it at a home store like Home Depot, Lowes, etc.
The two types available are:
Acrylic ( PlexiGlas brand ) and Polycarbonate ( Lexan brand )
Acrylic is easier to cut, cheaper to buy but can crack if flexed.
Polycarbonate is harder to cut, more expensive, and definitely much stronger.
The cutting tool looks like a piece of hacksaw blade with one large
tooth. You just drag it along making a scraping and then repeat lots
of times until you cut completely through.
Cheers,
James

Would any of you who buy plexiglass to use for your photograph
framing please let me know your sources for buying the
plexiglass? Do you buy large sheets, then cut them to size?
Thank you.
