Howdy folk!
WE have a new project that requires us to diamond turn some optics for prototyping. I'm relatively new to the optical game, so i don't even have a manufacturer of material to start with.

Please let me know if you know who to approach to buy high pmma blanks intended for optics in the USA. thanks!

I can't help you explicitly with the blanks as we buy raw pellets, but we use a lot of Plexiglas V826 & HT121 for injection molding optical components.
Trinseo is the manufacturer, you could try reaching out to them and see if they are able to supply any blanks.
