    Polycarbonate(Lexan) would be far better than plexiglass. Makrolon is merely a brand name(manufacturer) of polycarbonate panels.

    Check out McMaster Carr. I know they sell polycarbonate sheet in various sizes as I get it from them when I need it quickly for fabrication at work.

    Not sure if you have Theisens farm stores up that way but that’s where I bought a big sheet of lexan to build a windshield for my ranger. Wanna say it was just under a $100.

    In my whole life I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone say that before.
