Lexan Inlays

[stringkilla]

I have seen several posts concerning Lexan or plexiglass as an inlay material. The main issues being how to level it. Well here's an idea and a solution. I worked for several years as a mold maker in a plastics company that made sports related plastics. One very interesting job was to make clear Lexan face guards for La Crosse. Well long story short, to get the ultimate shape heat the lexan with a heat gun pre stress the part to the radius and voila, it's shaped to fit.
