I used a plexiglas 1/8 thick white i think the part number is 7328 (white) or 3015 (white)(when i get home tonight i will get the right part number and get a Lithophane peace and post tomorrow the picture) i was having a hard time finding corian me and a buddy came a cross this and it looked just as good as corian and it was way over half the price of corian a sheet of corian cost me around $280.00+ shipping for a sheet 36.00x 96.00 a sheet of plexiglas was around $110.00 plus shipping but we went down and picked it up and the size was 49.000 x 96.00 for a 1/8 thick (corian is .250 thick )the place was Lard Plastics the man i talked to was Lee Wygant
