Standard sheet stock is just the beginning! If your design calls for hard-to-find materials--like this heavy-duty, large-diameter cast colored acrylic rod--we can source specialty items to match your exact specs. From custom displays to industrial components, we’re always here to help track down the right plastic for the job.

Have a hard-to-find material on your project blueprint? Ask us at the counter or drop your material wishlist in the comments! 🎨🔍

Giant size, massive message! 🥤

Here’s the reveal on TAP San Leandro's 12-foot build: these custom acrylic tubes were fabricated right at TAP San Leandro to look like giant straws for a museum exhibit in Georgia! Once installed, they were filled with thousands of recovered ocean-bound plastic straws to spark conversation about ocean waste.

From quick counter cuts to 12-foot custom museum installations, our fabrication team is ready for your biggest ideas. What’s the largest project you’ve ever built? Tell us in the comments! 🌊♻️

Jay needed summer shade for his hostas, so he ditched the shade cloth and filled two gothic trellises with colored acrylic cut at our Portland store. Garden art that actually does a job. 🌈🌿

Colored acrylic holds up outdoors, won't shatter like glass, and we'll cut it to fit whatever frame you're working with, right at the counter.

Thanks for sharing, Jay! What would you build with a box of color? Show us in the comments. 👇
