Lexan for home use 1/4" vs 1/8"
<< < (2/2)
CanStick:
Myself, I use 1/16" Lexan.  It is pretty cheap (about $50 CDN for a 4' x 8' sheet of the stuff), and I actually use 11/16" particle board (hard to find, but a local lumberyard here carries it), so it gives me a total thickness of 3/4".  Perfect thickness for 3/4" T-Molding!
AlanS17:
I wouldn't know where to find 1/16" down in south Texas. Plus find 11/16" anythin is next to impossible here. You work with what ya got.
Brax:
Exactly. 5/8" MDF + 1/8" Lexan = 3/4" Perfect for using 3/4" t-molding to cover the edge of your Lexan.  Seems more logical than using .69737362177883766726717" thick wood and a lexan tablecloth to cover it.
AlanS17:
5/8" is in short supply here...

Ended up getting 1/8" lexan from home depot an 12 X 24 sheet was like 8 bucks (it's covering a classic sized panel)
