Lexan Windows?

[YMAN]

Does anyone have windows made of lexan armor? :D

Can lexan be cut easily?
How much does it cost and where can I buy it?
Are there any kits out there for lexan windows?

Any Info Greatly Appreciated!
Please post pics if you have any!

True "Lexan™", is fairly expensive. It cuts pretty much as easily as plexi. Not too sure why you'd want a bullet proof case though. You should be able to pick some up at a auto body supply shop, or find out where you can get some there.

CrystalMethod, do you have an approximat price?

[CrystalMethod]

No clue what the stuff cost now. I recall it being somewhere in the neighborhood of $2400 for a windshield, and side windows for my car.

I am thinking about using it in a case.
I also want something durable!:D

I just found a link (http://www.polymerplastics.com/transparents_lexan.shtml) that sells Lexan...about $22-32 per square foot for a 1/4inch sheet there is something about a custom sheet that changes the price so much...play with it a bit the price varries with the size, the more square feet the lower the sq foot cost.
Also this company has there phone # listed in the contact section.

Thanks, [Oc]acaridans
However I am a bit confused on one of the settings,
What is Cut Tolerance?

i wish i has some tools to make a case

RC car bodyshells are lexan, its tough stuff but cuts reletively easily. The only reason i can see for using it for a case window is if you are using a black light in there, as perspex degrades in UV light, but i dont think lexan does.
