  • Moldable plastic?

    I know it's been mentioned on here before, whats the name of the stuff? Where do I buy it? How hard is it to work with? looking for an alternative to glassing these last few pieces for the bike.

      Nope. What I remember hearing was something about sheets of this type of plastic that you could shape with a heat gun or lay on top of something and throw it in the oven to take the shape of whatever it was laying on.
      Maybe it was another board? Or maybe I should start wearing a mask when glassing and using the resins and hardeners

        Styrene Sheets from a Hobby Shop

        Try your local Hobby Shop and ask for ABS Styrene Sheets available in different thicknesses and lengths.

        I've used styrene sheets for making tabs on my old RF900.

        Hope this helps!
