Hey folks,
Im currently working on my first ODST helmet and am almost done but have hit a snag with the visor. I want to try vacuum forming I already built a little home set up and tried it with some more easily formed plastics but now its time for the real deal.
What Plastic/material is recommended? I keep seeing PETG referenced but seems fairly pricey
What thickness do you recommended? I have seen .06" as the recommended thickness on a few threads
Lastly good places to get material from? Ive seen some people recommended local shops and thats not much of an option for me so any shops that ship US affordably would be appreciated.
Thanks!
