I need a sheet of clear Perspex (or any other kind of clear plastic) about 1830 by 700 mm where can I get that from in the Sheffield area, ideally I’d like it to be cut to size when I buy it as I haven’t got much in the way of tools, also anybody know how much I can expect to pay for something like that?

Try Sheffield Industrial Plastics on Arundel Street (back of Arundel Gate). They will cut to size.

B and Q is best as they will definitely cut it for you too.

I agree Industrial Plastics 0114 2799188 is the best place, phone your order first, usually ready for collection next day.

I had some cut to size and delivered to my door from ebay, there are lots of manufacturers who will do it and if you're really interested, pm me and I'll send you the details of the guy who did ours. Ours is shatterproof and impact proof, bought it to put facades on our tv unit and bookshelves to keep them safe from our twins.

B&Q wouldn't cut to size when we went. Will try Industrial Plastics to avoid high delivery costs for online puchases.

I have had some from B&Q before. Depends who you ask and what sort of mood they are in regards cutting it for you.
