To Plexi or not to Plexi
Witchboard:
I've been debating what to cover my CP with as well. Would you recommend plexi even if you don't have a high-lip trackball? I have a regular trackball and was wondering what my options were. I'm really interested in NoOne's method. Would this possibly work?
hunky_artist:
can I ask a silly question?
what's lexan? I know what plexiglass is, I think we call it perspex here in the UK, but lexan? I've never heard of it, apart from in this forum, lol
help! :)
JustMichael:
perspex is acrylic while Lexan is polycarbonate.
hunky_artist:
but they're both the same kind of thing then? clear 'plastic'?

Lexan is a lot stronger that Plexi (which is prone to cracking) but allegedly scratches a bit easier. It's also slightly more expensive (by how much I don't particularly know). Lexan is the material of choice for those covering their CPs (at least in a majority of the projects I've seen).
But yes, they are both clear plastic.
And those are some nice cupholders there Santoro. I'm just going to put a little table nearby since I'm a klutz. ;)
