Plexiglass

[.SteezusChrist.]

will plexiglass slide well if i put it on a box?

 

[ajax]

I don't know from experience, but it seems like it would unless it breaks when it gets cold.

i used some, and it broke when i was screwing it on, so if u do use it, be careful attaching it, but yeah it slides good

 

[HeathR]

pre-drill and get a countersink

 

[KINKED]

it slides great but glue it on, i used caulk to glue it, and make sure its think because it cracks on the edges

i used some it chips and cracks way easily we destroyed it in 2 hours. granted we had no bars on the sides though

 

[wev-skis]

is plexiglass expensive if u buy it at like home depot

 

[R-B-B]

yeah i used it for a box and it got cracked after maybe 3 hits and just started to shatter after maybe 15 slides.

Plexiglas will crack/shatter in the cold.

-experience

 

[C.Wood]

ive heard it shatters when its cold

 

[J-Neal]

Ive heard it slides well if you attach it properly, but yes It will shatter in the cold.

plexiglass is sooooo expensive but i found two 4x8ft sheets of it.

 

[2_fadez]

how much does it cost per square foot?

 

[dandougherty]

i wouldnt use plexi glass, i slides ok but it breaks real eaisly. use plastic peg board insted, its the shit

 

[stickerman]

plexi glass does not slide well. it is sticky, and will not withstand the edges of a ski. not to mention it will snap when it becomes cold out.

If you have an ice rinks around you< they throw away ther chiped of broken glass some times, hockey glass is mad strong wont crack or break if ur using it for a box, i use it and it works fine! so pick up some hockey glass

plexi cracks after 2-5 hits. Spend on the money on HDPE, my box has had well over 500 hits between me and my friend and it still has yet to crack.

My plexy glass broke in the first night. Took 2 hours to build just for one night. not worth it.

 

[JStrathern]

shattered into pieces and i landed on it and it cut my arm... dont use it

lexan is way stronger than plexi. not sure if it will crack too, its about $5-10 per square foot at a glass shop
