Is there a good source of Alumalite and/or Starboard in the Gaithersburg area? I'm not trying to pay 100$ for shipping
Home Depot don't even know that other materials besides plywood exist and some sign shops want to charge me 100$ over the regular price anyways : /

Update from the Sunday incident @ Summit.
Thanks for all the support, he doing well. The surgery accomplished everything it was supposed to. Dad said his back is no longer bothering him but the area they went in through to perform the surgery is a bit painful. They moved him out of icu and into a regular room. He saw a physical therapist and was on his feet for a short time with some suppot.

Thanks Mani. Glad to hear it turned out about as well as it could.


Yup!

fast signs quoted me 230$ .... Price from the warehouse in NY is 100$ but with shipping it comes out to be the same :/
Sounds good Matt...I'll look into shipping then...maybe it'll be more feasible then.

Not sure how far back you want the splitter to go but you may be able to get a large leftover scrap piece under $100...i talked to one of the stores a few months back and went and looked at the material. Think the piece was about $80.

Oh, and I'll need one that conforms to NASA TT, PT, and HC rules so if you are serious about making 2, let me know and I'll tell you what restrictions these rules mandate.
