Hi,

I would strongly suggest making a mold for PU rails.
Way more cheaper. Search this forum for old posts.

Try junksupply.

Otherwise try any signage supplier that also does acrylics or polycarbonate.

I've had pretty good results with vacuum resin infusion and a simple fiberglass rope around the perimeter - it's pretty tough and you can infuse it in one go. Your mileage may vary though :)
