Materials

[M. Hicken]

I didnt think this was worth starting a new thread for so, im sorry if i should have.

Our team has been using lexan for several years now Mostly to mount the electronics and other small things. Since we now have a new montor, we are starting over from scratch as experience goes. We are now out of lexan, and we have been told we can not spend $560 on a 4'x4'x1/4" sheet of lexan.

My question: Is there anything that is comprable to lexan that doesnt cost this much? I cant immagine that other teams can fork out this much money for a small sheet. If your team does use lexan, where do you get ir from? We are looking for a material with similar properites (machineable, drillable, and flexible emough to use them for the tetras, for example)


thanks
