Don't use Plexiglas for that purpose. You'll regret it. (Plexiglas is acrylic, and shatters easily. It's also difficult to machine.)

If you must have something transparent, use polycarbonate, which is tougher and easier to work with. But plywood isn't that bad either—good-quality plywood is stiff for its weight, and even easier to work with.
