HDPE Plastic for box Tops CHEAP

[Taydawg197]

I have heard that this stuff works better than lexan for box tops. I just ordered 12 feet X 1 foot of it on ebay for 28 bucks. Great deal. Heres the auction if anyones interested thers still 7 sheets of 24"x24" and it cuts as easy as wood im told. Anyone ever use this stuff?

this stuff is like gold. It's what I use. Cept those are some pretty small assed sheets. I almost flipped when i first read your 28 dollar purchase, being as though it retails for closer to 135 for a 8'x4' sheet.

you can run it over with snow cats and its fine. But dont leave it in the summer sun, oops.

 

[Taydawg197]

Well i only needed 1 foot by 10 feet so i got 3 24"X24" so ill end up with 2 feet leftover. Its the best price ive seen it.

US plastics has a 12x4 foot sheet for like 100 bucks

 

[Taydawg197]

of quarter inch?

 

[Melvs]

mcmaster has decent prices as well, but careful with shipping...

 

[Taydawg197]

I already ordered mine off ebay, shipping wasnt bad. 3 2' X ' sheets shipping was like 12 bucks.

We've used it on all of our boxes. Slides like butter. You won't be disappointed.

 

[Taydawg197]

Sweeeeeet

 

[R-Bertsch]

yeah ive used it, it works great, i paid 140 for a 4x10 foot sheet tho

 

[BillyGoteMan]

hey tay if u bought three did the thing update or is there only 2 sheets left

 

[Taydawg197]

When i bought it there was 10. I took 3. So there was 7. It updates real time so if it says theres 2 there is 2. Im sure the guy has more, should msg him.

i took advice from this thread and ordered a huge sheet of 3/8 hdpe. the only problemn is it showed up and is slightly textured.? it feels slick, but its not smooth as i was expecting...is this legit?

 

[Taydawg197]

shit, havent gotten mine yet, i think mine said smooth. Maybe you could sand it?

 

[N.L.]

yeah, i dont know what im gonna do yet, i have to go check it out.

 

[FocusProductions]

how thick did u guys buy it. do u think 1/16 is to thin if we throw it on top of a peice of plywood

 

[tjski]

can you get this stuff at a home depote? (im aware i probly spelled depote wrong)

 

[TWoods]

yes. It will warp. get at least 1/4... but even that will warp.

 

[BillyGoteMan]

^^ i went to lowes the other day and couldnt find any

 

[d-loc]

no they only sell lexan and acrylic sheets.

 

[Taydawg197]

Order it. I got it off ebay

 

[T.L.]

do you think this would work on rails made out of 2x4's?

i folded a piece of newpaper in half more than 7 times

 

[freeskibum82]

we got some stuff from GE (general electic) that is bulletproof plastic.. no lie.. its 1/4in thick and never shreds. its lightweight and somewhat inexpensiv.. 4x10ft sheet for 100bucks

 

[Taydawg197]

Its prolly lexan. GE makes lexan

 

[Taydawg197]

Its impossible. Film yourself doing it then, but its impossible

 

[fluff]

he said news paper, its much bigger. so its kind of a void.

 

[linelogan]

kind of spendy

 

[mad_540_trix]

it's newspaper, which is thinner, so it is possible

 

[wdbo.]

i v hear of it being used before

 

[wdbo.]

[BkCountrySkrMO2]
