If you're looking for more pallets, I have 18 available free of charge. I
live near Brookfield, MO, so you'd need to come get them. First come, first
served. I don't have a line on free plexi, but if I run across any, I'll
let you know.

My location is the reason I'm not more active in the make:KC group.
