Im looking for an acrylic supplier in ohio to avoid shipping of ordering, online ive got a quote of 26$ per square ft which would run about 2500 not including cutting fees for my 450 gallon build. Ive seen joey say on his videos hes gotten acrylic at 12$ a square ft and was wondering if anyone on here from ohio can help me find a supplier with fair prices. Need 3/4 inch cell cast. Thanks in advanced!

Prices vary based on oil prices, acrylic is not cheap and I Highly doubt you will find a 3/4" sheet for $12 per sq/ft. When I did my build I was unable to find a local supplier. You could try aquariumsbychloe.com, used to be aquaart.com. he's a tank builder so I don't know if he will just sell individual sheets. He is in plain city ohio.
I got lucky and there was a guy on here tearing down his tank in cleveland so he sold me his front panel of 1" acrylic for $400. American plastics is where I was about to order from till he messaged me offering me the panel. My next build is going to be huge and I will need 2 panels so I will once again be looking as well next year. I planned on asking Rich if he would sell just a panel if not I'll probably be ordering from american plastics.
There is a pretty big supplier around the Columbus area, might be the place you're referring to in Plain City. They must get their acrylic from somewhere so I would think you'd find a place around Columbus.
