ABS Sheet - .177" Thick, Black, 12" x 24" Nominal

Worked good for patching the under body panels on the front of my car

My goal was to add pair of hidden speakers for new 4 channel radio system upgrade to my 62 corvette. The black plastic sheet, along with 4 inch PVC pipe allowed custom design and fabrication for Kenwood 1066s drivers obtained from Crutchfield, to mount hidden at base of front console. I've used these plastic sheets many times prior to fabricate y other projects. Easy to cut with Dremel 3 in sawmax with blade for plastic, and drill with 4 in circle cutter at slow speed.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Good product!!! ...used to built the engine splash protector

We used these to cover cutout spots where our aquarium hang on filters used to go. We changed from hang on filters to under-gravel aquarium filtration and there were large rectangular holes in the 4 fish tank covers that let light out (light pollution). The large openings were unsightly, a possible place for adventurous fish to jump out of the tank and the opening might IMHO increase tank evaporation. We looked online and found people suggesting using a toaster oven set to 250 degrees F to warm the plastic sheet (already cut to size) on a foil lined tray until very pliable. The plastic was as flexible as underdone Lasagna noodles. Using a spatula and oven mitts we placed the hot plastic sheet onto the opposite top front corner of the tank lid to use as a form. This was hot work, the piece cooled in its’ new shape and returned to being rigid.

I am a total novice to making Kydex sheaths for anything, but I am enough of a tinker and budding custom knife maker, that I hoped I could figure it out, After watching a bunch of tutorials on Youtube about Sheath making with kydex, I decided to pull the trigger and make a go of it.As I have no experience with this before, I can't rate this kydex with regards to comparison with others.However I can attest that my FIRST project with this product went well enough that I have already made plans for several more sheathes and designs for other knives.My first attempt was to make a proper sheath for my Becker BK9. I wanted a scout carry configuration to keep it out of the way (horizontal instead of hanging up and down), and I wanted to be able to attach other things to it with ranger bands or Paracord.I would have to say that my first attempt came out at very nearly professional quality, with only a few design considerations that I might change in the future.The Kydex performed as expected, and took about 5 minutes in an oven at 350 to become the correct softness. IT took a little trial and error to get the technique down, but once I did, my sheath came out really good.It was super easy to use a heat gun to adjust and remold certain elements, and working with the tools I had was a snap, cutting with a band saw, and sanding went smooth and without error,The Kydex arrived very clean, and I just wiped down the smooth side with some windex before use and it stuck together like it's supposed to so when I drilled my Chicago screw holes, everything lined up niceI would add that this product seemed reasonably priced, for 8 12"x"12 sheets, you can make a lot of sheaths for a lot of knives.my BK9 design used up every scrap of Kydex (I needed belt loops), but if I forgo the belt loops, I could have easily fit 2 Bk9's on one sheet.Can't wait to try this on my other projects!

If you're using it for an amp on legs it will bow in the middle, you would be better off with thicker abs. if you're mounting it, it will work perfect make sure you have the correct rivnuts that bite into it, the kind that screw in with an allen key. The glossy side scuffs and scratches extremely easy so was not usable for my application. All in all it worked fine for an amp rack but I never thought that plastic should cost as much as it does.

I bought the ABS sheet to cover a vent on the side of a home theater computer case to better control the air flow through the case. Earlier this year, I bought a sheet of the the same product in .0125" thickness for a similar purpose and found it difficult to cut to fit with the tools I have. I'm happy with my previous purchase but this time opted for the thinner material as it will do the job with less effort on my part.One side of the sheet is textured and the other is shiny. I plan to have the textured side exposed and was pleased to see that it was uniform and unmarked. The shiny side shows signs of production such as what seem to be tool marks. The marks are not deep and I suppose they could be polished out if desired but the fact that one side is textured suggests that the product is intended for uses where the shiny side is concealed.

The product is as advertised. Apply a little heat and it becomes malleable. I used it once and didn’t take my time but it worked great.
