Default CASEMOD: Where to buy Orange acrylic?

I really want to find some orange translucent acrylic for a windowmod but I can't really find a good place to buy any. It must be eigth inch thick, at least 12" wide and at least 13" long.

http://shop.pitsco.com/store/detail....t=0&l=0&bhcp=1

I was looking at this but I wanted to know if anybody else has ever ordered there or can verify how "orange" this is.


Also, on the mnpctech website they said they bought orange windows from mcmaster.com, but I can only find amber, and I'm not sure whether or not that would be the right color.



Links would be SOOOO greatly appreciated guys.

Thanks in advance (syrillian, CD),

That's where i went too, but I just don't know if the amber they list is actually orange, especially since the guy on mnpctech said he bought his oragne acryllic there.

Transparent. The color is called amber, but in the picture it looks very orange.

I think the transparent amber is orange (from the looks of the website above, I might order some).

Which did you end up going with? Just curious?




Also, the one on devies plastics doesn't seem to be translucent, but I guess I can't put much faith in that random photoshopped thing they have on their website for colors.


EDIT: Realized what I'm looking for is more of a transparent orange.
