Re: Uses of Lexan

We used lexan a lot this year due to a lexan sponsor. A lot of our robot was clear including rails for the portcullis, actuators for the cheval, a belly pan for electronics, and the ball guidance system. I really like it as a material (it looks cool). For bending, we used a heat gun, which I don't recommend, but it was the only way.
