I also posted this in the DIY forum, but hoping to get some more info/exposure here too.
I want to build a tank using sch 80 pvc for the back and sides and then an acrylic panel for the front. it would be 4 ft long, 2 ft wide and 12" high. what thickness would the front panel need to be? i have 1/4" acrylic, but i didn't know if that would be thick enough. since the tank will only be 12" high, i don't think there will be too much bowing.
has anyone done this? i have weldon 3 and weldon 16, but i don't know if it will bond the acrylic to PVC. any advice would be helpful.
