[QUOTE="Simona Buhus, post: 3828870, member: 17467"]Thank God for Google :-) I should spell check sometimes... It was great to hear about Lucite, I would like to share a photo and to give some pointers from my own experience. Lucite is type of acrylic plastic with the following properties 1.Lucite is denser than plastic, so it feels a bit heavier than plastic, but is lighter than glass. 2. It looks like glass 3. It floats a bit in salty water 4. It does not smell when rubbed 5. It passes the static test, it attracts small pieces of paper after is rubbed against a cloth Thank you all for sharing your knowledge, this gave me the opportunity to learn about Lucite.
