Acrylic or ABS Plastic ??
Just trying to get ideas for a project and was wondering what materials i could use to build the body that would attach to a frame like body panels of a car. I am deciding between ABS plastic or Acylic Sheets. Are these good choices or are there better ones that are cheaper and stronger.

2TALLTARYABS or Delrin are most likely your best bets. They are both good machinable plastics and have great strength and last long. I was trying to build a spoiler out polycarbonate or lexan as it is more commonly know. I got it from #-Link-Snipped-# Try them.

If shatter resistance is a concern, you may be better off with fibre reinforced plastic. Prof. Victor Papenek (California Institute of the Arts) suggested Fibre Grass reinforcement to reduce costs.Wuebbs007I am deciding between ABS plastic or Acylic Sheets.
