NOT 12 INCES good for plastics

When is 12 inches not 12 inches? When you purchase this item, that really is 11 7/8 inches. I needed a sheet of Plexiglas or Lexan or some type of plastic sheeting a full 12 inches thick. This item states in several places that it measures 12" x 12". After receiving the item I went back and checked the listing carefully. It was only when I finished reading the list that I discovered a disclaimer informing me that due to the "cut" the items were not 12" but always LESS than 12" - REALLY? I'm…

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Awesome stuff to work with!

Used to make mold making clay tile work templates, a fantastic choice of materials! Can't wait to order more for another project. Tip for beginners with this material: 1) You can cut it with a jig saw, band saw or table saw. 2) If using a table saw, USE A ZERO GAP PLATE. I didn't, and it scared the shit out of me every time the blade hit the sheet. It makes a very loud popping noise. I also attached the board to the saw fence; The sheet I bought was thin enough to make you walk around…

Pros
  • Sheets
Cons
  • Thin

At first this plexiglass seemed very thin and at such a price I got a little tired of using it for its intended purpose: protecting an incredibly expensive lens from direct hits from fake guns made of very durable plastic. After the first take, the plexiglass actually detached from the camera (because our sound engineer didn't tape the film well to the matte box) and the actress hit it too hard, but surprisingly the plexiglass didn't shatter. There were several scratches. (plastic scratches)…

Pros
  • Raw
Cons
  • Crumpled
