Shelves needed

[Bi-Polarized]

So, today’s purchase was a new double wide. Unfortunately it didn’t come with any of the shelves. Anybody have any input on what to buy? Tempered, plexiglass, or acrylic? Is there a place online that is best to buy from?

Found it about 25 minutes south of Brighton. For the price it was well worth the 5 hour round trip.

I did find a website selling acrylic shelves & you choose what size width length depth & thickness.

Do you remember which one it was? Otherwise I can do some searching.

Sorry no but I do remember seeing one.

Remember with acrylic there will be some bowing if it is not thick enough.

Seems like I read somewhere that stock shelves are 8mm think.

Nice find, would recommend just going straight to tempered glass for the shelves.

And since you are doing new shelves, you can also order them a 1/2” narrower / edges trimmed to have room to run some LED strip lighting to simulate a 4.0 display

Go with Tempered glass. Acrylic will sag down the road. Find a local glass cutting company because shipping will be a lot if you order online
