Was planning to build an acrylic fish tank. Too expensive to ship my 300 gallon tank from the US. Thought maybe I can build one here. Anyone know where I can get Weld-on or something similar here in the Philippines? Any assistance will be appreciated. Thanks a bundle.
if you plan to use plexiglass for your acquaruim, then the shop where you will buy the plexiglass for sure will also sell the acrylic solvent to glue together the plexiglass. the last time (20+ years ago) i bought some plexiglass for my router table before was already selling the acrylic solvent glue, so you should be able to also get it locally now. look for a shop that specializes in glass and acrylic plastic products, most likely, they also specialize in building custom built acquaruims ... cheers
Boo!
I appreciate your replies. I now live here in Cavite, and tell you they ain't got much here in terms of tools and all that. I can't even find nails for my mail gun. Checked out the local plastic shops here and basically they weren't of much help. I guess I'll need to plan a trip to manila or something. Thanks again fellas! Good looking out.
i too have the same problem. cavite is only an hours drive to metro manila. i'm staying here in south cotobato (mindanao) and it really takes a lot of inginuity to find the materials i need for my projects 🙂 ... its good that we have internet now for searching before actually going to the place to buy it ... cheers
Boo!
Are you from the US too Boo? I sure do miss the home depots and Lowe's over there, but I live here now, so I need to adjust... LOL!
nope. i'm a Filipino. my family and i stayed in SG for 14 years ... cheers
Boo!
weld on cement magkano na yan saatin ? yan ginagamit naming sa malalaking PVC pipes sa construction dito saudi ...makahingi nga aq para maiuwi ko rin wala pala saatin nyan...
Yeah, thugstools_413. Weld-on is great. Don't know why I can't find it here. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough. If you take some home, maybe you'd like to share and help a brother out... LOL!
