[sdiy] Source for nicely cut polycarbonate?

[Chromatest J. Pantsmaker]

Because there are things on the circuit board that needs to be seen through the "case". I suppose this could work for the bottom, as the new pcb could have the same screenprinting on it, but the top would work better clear.

Good thought that I hadn't considered though!
