I know that I can glue acrylic to the inside of the tank (glass, making wet/dry) with silicone, but how do I glue acrylic to acrylic.
How to glue acrylic?

there's actually a bonding agent that can fuse it together, but i cannot think of what its called right now.

Okay thanks. I can see that it is available online, but are there local stores that would carry this.
Back up.... what are you building with the acrylic? Weld on 16 is a great solvent cement for acrylic, but it's definitely not ideal for doing something like say, building a tank. If you're just trying to stick things together it'll be great. Only local places that have stuff like that are fiberglass/plastic shops, maybe a hobby shop if you're lucky.

Alright, well that sounded a bit ambiguous, like maybe you'd made a wet dry before with silicone but now you wanted to glue acrylic to acrylic for some other reason. Just making sure dude. Weld on 16 will probably be fine.

Actually my bad. I am just a little frustrated tonight.
Need to put the project down for the night. Tomorrows another day.One other question though, is it true that you need special drill bits to drill acrylic. Need to make drip plate for wet/dry?
