Soooo i've been looking around more and reading lots of worklogs and such, and i think i wanna try and make my own window for my side panel!
I totally have the will for this, but as the way, i'm stuck...
I'm pretty sure i have the necessary tools (Dremel with disk cutter, various sanding and polishing equipment) but i don't exactly know where to get my hands on some nice, clean acrylic! there aren't many specialty stores in this town... :(
So if someone could hook me up with a nice site for ordering some nice acrylic, as well as a few ideas of how to make my window, I'd be really grateful!!
Thanks :)
I'll add a few pics of what i wanna do with that I have in mind...

I also came across a BRAND-NEW never-opened soldering gun, a larger, more powerful dremel, and a scroll saw, though i don't think i'll use it for much, other than cutting out my window... I don't know why my step dad hides these things from me... but oh well :P
