Thats a good tip - I need some Lexan for a Swordsman wrap-around screen, so I will look for the UV resistant quality. 👍

I always make templates in cardboard to get shapes right. I also use plastic thin sheets. Even thin brass cut with scissors. Cleverly done to simulate what I will actually use fir template.

Take a look at some PetG plastic sheet. It comes in various thicknesses, is perfectly clear and glossy and very easy to work with. (It's heat mouldable too!) Ebay has many suppliers of this stuff!

I have used it with great success on my models for vac formed windows..

Hi guys so just deciding while making the grab rails for the top of the boat how does one cut a template for the plastic screen is there one I can copy then cut out or just learn by my mistakes been trying to use a pizza tray to round off the bottom but tried it yet to get the proportions of the hull and made a quick attempt last night with an old pizza box not sure if I’m making it too big or small
