Default Re: Plexiglass windshield

I made my one out of Lexan. I went and bought a heat gun at Home Depo for about $30. and bought ¼” stock. Lexan doesn’t crack or shatter like Plexiglas does. Came out looking good saved some $$ and still have stock left over for other projects. I clamped some wood stock on both sides of the material and heated it up and bent it. I never did it before and just practiced on a couple of small pieces to practice on first. I would do it again. If you go with Plexiglas you will need to use thicker stock which is a little harder to work with if you do it yourself.
