I'm building a router table and am looking for plastic laminate for the top (and bottom). I haven't been able to find anything suitable at the local BORGS and just get blank stares when I ask them for plastic laminate or "any kind of plastic sheet 1/16" or so thick".
"Uh, you mean acrylic?" No, not quite.
Anyways, the offerings at local plastics distributors are dizzying. There is, of course, nothing called "plastic laminate". So what exactly am I looking for?
LDPE? HDPE? Phenolic? These are all things that seem like they would be fine but I think I'm missing the simpler and cheaper options.
If you know of any online suppliers of suitable plastic laminate, please let me know. Thanks!
