Where are you located at?

In San Antonio there is Regal Plastics and Allied Plastics.

I like the scrap bin at Regal. Allied doesn't have one. You can get some nice pieces out of the bin, you just have to look.
It's been a while since I was there, but I think they charge $1 /lb. out of the scrap bin.

I guess it's time to gripe about Regal in hopes that I might steer at least one prson away from them. I ordered some templates cut on their CNC router, which they agreed to do for free after they royally screwed up an acrylic order of mine. Anyhow, the templates took 4 months instead of the 3 weeks they promised, were so badly cut that they're basically useless, and they charged me $100. I still can't believe I actually paid it, I just could not stand the thought of going back in there again and I knew the templates would never get better.
