    When making a litho, you are looking for a Corian type material. There are a few other brands out there a bit cheaper. Corian is DuPont product and their trade name for it. Plastics work for certain lighting projects. When dealing with plastics you have to make sure they are not of the type that melt when cut, such as cast acrylic, which is a great choice for carving projects. Extruded acrylic will melt, plexiglass is extruded. Lexan or poly-carbonate works well, it is the type of plastic safety glasses are made from. Plastics also create a lot of static, which means you will have small pieces of plastic everywhere, sticks like glue.
