How much does pvc cost by the sheet and where do i get it from? what can you cut it with? is there a web site to give me more info....

thanks Paul

do you mean expaned pvc or solid pvc? if you mean solid keep in mind it weighs about twice as much as expanded in 4mm and 6mm thicknesses and even more in greater thicknesses.

if you mean expanded (sintra) scroll down to two posts from me a few days ago.

one is "good info about plastics" and is all about the proper blades for different kinds of plastics

the second further down is "pdf sintra manual" and its 48 pages about working with expanded pvc.

hope this helped you some

I can't contribute much more than the recent posts from Harlan. Since my cages will have the PVC corner angle I have not worried much about getting perfect cuts.

Regarding cost, local plastic distributors are always cheapest. In Omaha, Indianapolis and Denver I was always able to find 1/4" for about $40 per sheet.
