I replace the screening today.  There is enough leftover to do it again at least once.  It is behind the blaster.  

I could not find a replacement material for the protective cover on the viewing window at the Space.  The viewing window itself is foggy and could be replaced.  If we do not have the viewing window projective material it is available from Northern Hydraulic for $70 for 50 sheets.  I can get a sheet of acrylic 4' x 2'  x 220/1000 in. for $50.  That is enough to make 4 windows.  Let me know if you want me to get any of the materials and install them.  I don't mind spending a few $ for the screen.  I don't know how to get reimbursed for the other materials if I get the go ahead to purchase them.

I also have plenty of clear acrylic to replace the window many times. Its super cheap by the pound at Midland plastics. There is a film on the current window, but I dont know where to get more film.

I’m guessing it’s something similar to acitate use in art to cover photos and such. Grafix Clear .007 Dura-Lar 40-Inch-by-12-Feet, Roll https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0092MJLXE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_2dKdAbGC9ND5M here’s a 40in roll that should be plenty of material for many replacements plus it’s cheap (relative to the acrylic). I’ve also seen people cutting this on a vinyl cutter so maybe it would be a good material for the craft lab too?

Problem solved.  We already have a roll of plastic used for this.   In the future, please post things about the space itself on the internal list or cross post it to both lists. Thanks!
