My replacement windows, my companionway boards, and three hatch lenses all came from one sheet of thick plexi I bought from eplastics. I had them cut it in half to reduce shipping costs, and I had them cut to size locally. I still have few pieces left.
Be mindful that eplastics' thickness guarantee has a margin of error. Thickness became an issue for one of my hatch lenses as I recall. -----Original Message----- From: CnC-List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Joe Della Barba via CnC-List Sent: Thursday, June 25, 2020 4:26 PM To: [email protected] Cc: Joe Della Barba <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Stus-List economics of hatches I got to thinking boats can't possibly be the only use for Plexiglas. https://www.eplastics.com/plexiglass will make me TWO 19x19x1/2 hatch pieces cut from the shape of the old glass or a tracing on paper with the radiused corners and rounding off the edges if desired for about $400. For TWO! I don't want any he-said-she-said, so if I do this I'll probably send them the old piece! Joe Coquina ps - my wife says buy an airplane, parts are cheaper. Cessna windshields run under $300 for the smaller ones. LOL _______________________________________________ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions.
