Hello Florian,
according to one of the plastic-suppliers plexiglass are acryllic
plates. But you have indeed other, stronger types of plastics, that
are to be used as burglar-proof windows, called Lexan (quite nice to
drill holes in I think).
The thing is that I can only get plexiglass coloured (hopefully
also "frosted" ,looks nice with blue) .
The other thing is that I'm not going to make module panels from it,
just the case. The only mod I maybe want to do on my doepfers is
replace the knobs for AS ones (and in time the mini jacks for metal
ones )..
