Perfect to make ABS SLURRY
Anyone looking to make "ABS SLURRY" to repair or strengthen so plastic this is right stuff. I had bought some other suppose to be ABS plastic sheets but would not dissolve in Acetone as should if true abs. This does, perfectly. Oh if like me & new to ABS slurry a good ratio is 50 grams ABS to 125 ML of Acetone in a airtight jar ( I used canning jar) I repairing/Strengthening the infamous Cheap GM dash. Good luck to ya

Smooth side is a mess
Smooth side is not at all smooth. If you’re going to paint, you’ll need a lot of prep work. Otherwise, good quality.

First try with Kydex went very well!
I am a total novice to making Kydex sheaths for anything, but I am enough of a tinker and budding custom knife maker, that I hoped I could figure it out, After watching a bunch of tutorials on Youtube about Sheath making with kydex, I decided to pull the trigger and make a go of it.As I have no experience with this before, I can't rate this kydex with regards to comparison with others.However I can attest that my FIRST project with this product went well enough that I have already made plans for several more sheathes and designs for other knives.My first attempt was to make a proper sheath for my Becker BK9. I wanted a scout carry configuration to keep it out of the way (horizontal instead of hanging up and down), and I wanted to be able to attach other things to it with ranger bands or Paracord.I would have to say that my first attempt came out at very nearly professional quality, with only a few design considerations that I might change in the future.The Kydex performed as expected, and took about 5 minutes in an oven at 350 to become the correct softness. IT took a little trial and error to get the technique down, but once I did, my sheath came out really good.It was super easy to use a heat gun to adjust and remold certain elements, and working with the tools I had was a snap, cutting with a band saw, and sanding went smooth and without error,The Kydex arrived very clean, and I just wiped down the smooth side with some windex before use and it stuck together like it's supposed to so when I drilled my Chicago screw holes, everything lined up niceI would add that this product seemed reasonably priced, for 8 12"x"12 sheets, you can make a lot of sheaths for a lot of knives.my BK9 design used up every scrap of Kydex (I needed belt loops), but if I forgo the belt loops, I could have easily fit 2 Bk9's on one sheet.Can't wait to try this on my other projects!

As Described
As described, just not the right size I needed. Seemed to be high quality.

Great product. We used it to thermoform replacements on our fish tank lids!
We used these to cover cutout spots where our aquarium hang on filters used to go. We changed from hang on filters to under-gravel aquarium filtration and there were large rectangular holes in the 4 fish tank covers that let light out (light pollution). The large openings were unsightly, a possible place for adventurous fish to jump out of the tank and the opening might IMHO increase tank evaporation. We looked online and found people suggesting using a toaster oven set to 250 degrees F to warm the plastic sheet (already cut to size) on a foil lined tray until very pliable. The plastic was as flexible as underdone Lasagna noodles. Using a spatula and oven mitts we placed the hot plastic sheet onto the opposite top front corner of the tank lid to use as a form. This was hot work, the piece cooled in its’ new shape and returned to being rigid.

Sturdy enough to screw into
If you're using it for an amp on legs it will bow in the middle, you would be better off with thicker abs. if you're mounting it, it will work perfect make sure you have the correct rivnuts that bite into it, the kind that screw in with an allen key. The glossy side scuffs and scratches extremely easy so was not usable for my application. All in all it worked fine for an amp rack but I never thought that plastic should cost as much as it does.
