Eggcrate

How do you cut this stuff?

Seems like it would be brittle and break if you tried to bend it or saw it.

Side cutters.

[jroescher]

That was my first thought, just wanted to make sure before I dove in.

My question is where do you buy it?

HD or Lowes ... its ment to be the grid in a 2'x4' light fixture. So you will find it back in that area.

Like Pete said.
I got mine at Lowe's in San Marcos. It's in the rack with the other plastic light diffusers. It's not where the Lights and fixtures are, but back where the lumber is.

If you ask for lighting grid or eggcrate, theyre gonna go DUH? You have to ask for flourescet light "diffusors". Cut it with a jig saw with a medium blade for best results.

Thanks I will head that way today.

..Ive always used regular scissors..and cut between the grids..works just fine. HD sells it at $12 a sheet..and its not a big sheet..I think its expensive, LOL

I use scissors also. Im like you Diego, $12 seems like way too much for a piece of plastic

Table Saw with a fine cut blade

needle nose pliars give clean quick cuts/breaks. Works like a charm.
