I need to make a few sliders for a Dansco book #7143 that are missing. They say I need clear Acetate paper, but I do not know the thickness (depth) I need to order. Does anyone know the depth?

Acetate is actually plastic not paper.

Hit up the crafts store and (if you don't already have them), buy a cutting mat, mat knife, metal straightedge, and look in the scrapbook department (or maybe with the Cricut machines) for archival material.

Thanks guys. I took Burton's advice and went to Micheal's abought the Cricket acetate sheets and cut it with the Fiskar's Surecut Trimmer that I bought, and it worked great. But now with the dimensions given to me by Dearborn I will be able to improve my sliders as the Cricket acetate sheets which gave no thickness spec. was on the thin side and I will attempt to get one closer to .3 mil. For now, it will suffice.
