Re: [FTC]: Molding Plastics
With the polycarbonate sheeting, the most common way used in FTC so far has been to use a heat gun (pretty cheap at Lowes) and form the plastic around something with a similar diameter/curvature/what have you. Without heat, in a regular bender, you should be fine with thicknesses of sheeting up to .125".
