Where are people getting their screen covers now that Dom has taken a break at Retrofresh.

Just had my shipment arrive from Day however gotna couple more builds underway and no screen covers.

I know you can get your hands on blank ones...anyone know where we can find ones like Dominator made? :geek:

I just went to TAP Plastics and got a sheet of 1/32" polycarbonate for a couple bucks, and traced it with the screen cover that came with my aftermarket case, put some black double-sided tape and it's good to go.

Thanks, guys. Have placed an order with Deadpanrobot for a couple of glass ones with the black border. Looks like a nice product!

Here's hoping Dom comes back soon :)

But it's just the black border.

I just gave away the ones with tape (tricky to get an even border)
But here's the raw polycarbonate. Cost me about $1.50 for a sheet large enough to make 12 covers. If you go this route, get the 1/32" stock (thinnest they have) as it sits flush. Bonus: you can cut it with sharp scissors.
