Masp Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Aside from our favorite auction site, can anyone please recommend a good site, or store for buying acrylic risers? I’m looking for longer ones around 12 inches in length. Height so they stack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facehugger Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I like acrylic displays, but they tend to get scratched up by specimens or time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sagebrush Steve Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Tap Plastics is where I go for things like this. They have a store nearby and also an online site: https://www.tapplastics.com/ They probably don’t have exactly what you need but can make it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimravis Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Years ago when Natural Wonders ( a chain store that was open in malls and sold rocks, fossils, telescopes, etc.) my wife went in when they were closing down and bought me a lot of there plastic and wood risers for 25 cents each. I use them for fossil displays and they work great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m only going to be putting light weight display frames on them that I don’t plan on moving much so hopefully they’ll still do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
