I just recently decided to build a couple of box's to put in a home made park.  I got all the mats together abd have that all figured  out but im stuck on the top sheet.  I have tried to figure out more information by just googleing but that always seems to be a dead end.   There jsut so many different ideas out there and have no clue which would be the best.  Any Suggestions?

you can by it by rolls of 50' at this site http://www.backyardrink.com/index.htm 

Go to pricing and Order and you can get 4"x50' for $25 or 6"x50' for $35.  This stuff is legit.

its called lexan...

call a sign shop.... that stuff is really really expensive , but... i work at a sign shop myself... and people call and ask for that stuff alllll the time.... what you need to do is ask the person in the shop if they are doing any lexan signs soon and if they will have any small strips left over... after then cut it down for the sign... i myself have collected 4 nice pieces (from signs we did) and am making a few boxes... :)))))

good luck
