I don't mean to jump your post but I am also looking to build a DIY sump. I have looked at home depot and they have large sheets of acrylic for what seems like a good deal. They don't have the acrylic weld. I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a min. standard for acrylic to be welded?

Try www.usplastics.com
and www.interstateplastics.com
You should be able to get the acrylic weld there, although I have not looked.

You can get the "glue" at http://www.tapplastics.com/shop/product.php?pid=170&amp This link points to Weld-On #16, I have heard of people liking #3 better, but you will need the stuff in this link for #3: http://www.tapplastics.com/shop/product.php?pid=170&amp
Hope this helps
