in I wanna buy it or do it
Hi all,

I've just got a 2nd hand chalet/shed for my craft stuff - thing is the 4 perspex windows are beyond cleaning. Does anyone know where I could get some replacement windows?

I've tried Ebay but it throws up perspex plastic bird boxes or other useless items!

Thanks in advance :)

    You should be able to buy sheets of perspex from places such as Wickes or Homebase & then get them cut to size. I had the windows in my shed replaced with perspex after the frames started to rot & a window was broken. I had a handyman do the job for me & I think he cut the panes with a circular saw.
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    Perspex is a trade name. Try looking for acrylic.

    Thanks guys! We have a Focus around the corner but they don't seem to have it on their shelves, I'll pop into a Homebase when I go that direction!

    Ta very much on the acrylic name too - I'll check Ebay :)
