Acrylic ?

[BrianOKC]

Ok since i like to build stuff on my own and i'm pretty good at DIY projects. Does anyone know a book or site that shows the basics of working with acrylic? I'm looking for something that covers the basics too glueing , bending , shaping and such.

The DIY Forum has TONS of information on it. Here, I've adjusted the link below to filter the threads by the amount of posts. Just start on the first page and keep looking through the pages until you find a really awesome acrylic working thread.

In fact, the biggest thread is the first thread titled "Acrylic fabrication questions? I can help!". 119 pages of acrylic working bliss!

There are a couple of good threads that talk about Acrylic Fabrication in the DIY forums. They can give you a good idea of how to do things. Once you get started you will find your own way to make things easier.

PM me if you have some questions I should be able to answer them.
