[Lab] Local hardboard & acrylic?

[Andrew Barbour]

Home Depot - they charge per cut (the number free and cost varies by
store).  Most will allow you to do multiple layers without extra charge -
they are leery of doing it as it is not too accurate - but let them know
you are not concerned and you should be good. My suggestion - bring a
coffee for the guy/gal and they are even more accommodating than normal!  I
go and get a full 4'x8' sheet ripped to 1'x2' pieces for the cost of a
coffee.
