Other Thoughts
  • Weld-On is serious stuff, use in a well-ventilated space.
  • If you've never drilled Lexan before, I recommend you do so only in a drill press. Go slow, let the bit cool as you go or you'll melt the plastic. Use a piece of Lexan under the piece you're drilling instead of wood -- when you break though with the bit, wood chips and dust can become fused in your piece; Lexan won't, it can be chipped off with your fingernail.
  • Although 1/4 Lexan is quite strong, you'll still want to wear your face shield for protection.
If anyone wants to see more pictures, please let me know.

Good luck, and please post your improvements.
