Plexiglass dividers for voting booth

[cradke0419]

Need to make some plexiglass dividers for voting booths. I have 4x8 sheets 1/8" thick. Was going to cut them in 3rds and make them 48x32 approximately. Need to build a base so they can stand up on a table. I want to machine the base out of 3/4" plywood. Looking for ideas. Need 9 of these done by Monday.

I would just cut rectangles on the table saw and fasten the plexiglass to 2 4 x 4's running perpendicular to plexi for your pass through. Attach with angle brackets.

Was thinking about making it more eye pleasing than 2x material. Thought about something like this. 15858688632207928559563352138652.jpg

Yeh man that looks nice. So these are sneeze guards for a voting booth?

I suggest really rounding all the edges and corners so some fool doesn't hurt themselves and sue you. No good deed goes unpunished.

I haven't cut plexiglass before but those edges are as smooth as can be. Very happy with the results. They are just a barrier between the poll workers and the voters sitting on a table. Wasn't able to screw them down to the top so i had to come up with a way they were free standing.

Need to make 18 of these things by Monday. Donating my time for this project but hope it helps. Don't know what to think about the one time use and probably never used again but I guess that would be a good thing!

I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier but this tool is awesome for cutting tabs. Too bad I figured that out on the last sheet!
