Adhesive for Arcylic

[Cacatuoides]

Hi bros,

Anyone know which is the best form of adhesive to bond two pieces of arylic together, nice and non-fuss way? silicon, hot-glue or such?

Also, anyone know any place which custom made arylic? I wish to custom make an arcylic box with one side extend....

Looking forward to your kind advises

Its actually my personal non-aquaria project....

I need a simple box with the back extended only....some folks have mentioned about a shop in bras basah but do they help cut and stick it together?

Theres one at lavender area.. they make those drink boxes for unlce and auntie at drink stalls.. but also make other kinds of boxes and such..
They will do everything you need.

Mind if can provide their contacts or whereabouts?

Anyone have the shop name or contact, the one at bras basah? I'm going there next week, don't want to search the entire building blindly....thanks

the one at bras basah i think if i remember correctly..is like 03-99 or 02-99.. something like that.. its a left turn after escalator..walk to end..then turn right.. there will be signs so just pay attenetion... they tell you where they are..

The one at lavender is a bit harder... i think wackytpt knows where it is.. so does a few other of the moderators and rupert as we went there sometime back together... i know how to go but i cant describe..sorry.. maybe one of the others can help.

Actually you can get a nice molecular bond with chloroform. Just give it a day to evaporate before you get it anywhere near fish.

saw a cholroform based adhesive on sale at Artfriend in Taka. Supposed to be able to join PVC and Acrylic too. You can get it also from Tree Wizard at sunshine place near selegie (across the road from Red Sea)
