Bending plexiglass?
We just picked up a beautiful curio to refinish for my daughter for Christmas. The glass is missing from 2 of the panels though. What kind of shop would I inquire at to have some curved? Any thoughtsw on how much it is likely to cost?
The piece would be about 12" X 42".
You can do this yourself actually. Plexi will get quite malleable at temperatures as low as 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Rrecumbent bicyclists "blow" their own windscreens in their basements with space heaters and insulation board found in any home supply store. You need a form or some way of knowing when you have the desired bend and there you go you have your own replacement.
