Acrylic brackets

[deaclauderdale]

Can anyone assist me in locating someone who can fab a pair of acrylic brackets to gold my LG tablet that I'm using as a full-color Apex display? Was thinking of contacting John @ AA bit figure that project is way beneath what he's willing to handle. If your hobbyists willing to give this I ago that would be great.

If you are handy you would be surprised at how easy it is to work with acrylic. even more so with something small and simple like a bracket. Pick up some acrylic and weld-on #4, review some youtube videos on how to prep the edges and try it.

Weldon 3 and 4 are now called scigrip 3 and 4, and they are no longer available to regular consumers.

Thank you. I work for a cabinet shop and we often need acrylic on our jobs so I just call down to our local acrylic supplier when I need supplies and they will get it for me.

Do you know why they stopped selling it to regular consumers?

I'm interested in knowing the same?

I'm assuming since they stopped offering it to regular consumers something else had to of come up that people can purchase.

Not at this time. I do a lot of acrylic fabrication and I can still get it, but I meet the guidelines.

I wish I was responsible for this, but a fellow reefer designed it for me. I'll see if I can get him on R2R.

There are two holes on the bracket where I used 2 wood screws and washers.
