Re: \"Welding\" Lexan or plexiglass?
Ken thats a very interesting project. Now that you know how it's done how about building one for a small TV for the fender of your 1955 Ford 640?

Now that's an interesting idea! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
My wife and I just got back from a local boat show, and we walked through a 40' cabin cruiser that was awesome...as it should be for onlyyyyy 300k! It had flat screen tv's in almost every room. I guess I'll just have to settle for one on my tractor.

$300k? That's a steal. Come down to the Miami boat show next week, you can see boats large enough to tow that 40 footer as a dingy. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif One boat we saw last year was about 140 feet, and it had a 35 foot tender, and the 35 foot tender had a 13 foot inflatable on the back. The dingy had a dingy. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Dang! If the guy was stupid enough to keep falling out of the bigger boats, I'm surprised he had enough sense to make enough money to buy the whole shebang in the first place! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Re: \"Welding\" Lexan or plexiglass?
Years ago, in my Navy days, they used a product called
M-E-K which I believe is Methylene-Ethylene-Keytone. It is some powerful stuff. We just called it MEK, and it was used to strip paint from aircraft. The smell would take your breath. They had to use respirators. Dip a rag in that stuff and lay it on a car, it will take it down to bare metel. Anyway, it was used to glue Plexiglass also. If you had the right equipment, such as a heat strip, you could bend thie Plexiglass.
