Cutting Lexan

[GorillaMaxx360]

sorry man just realized it was thick lexan not the lexan the body's are made from. in this case use the scoring method, scroll saw, or a dermal with cutting wheel.

Im using my pocket knife. The blade is thick and has a clip point thats pretty sharp, I should say "was pretty sharp". Works fine now that Im scoring both sides.

Good Luck!

The scoring method works great on the thin stuff, but i've never tried it on the thicker stuff to see how it works.

You could try plasti-dip spray - It came out really good on my e-revo.

Another tip is to cut down an old rustler or stampede chassis for the battery tray... Again this worked great as it provides lots of protection is perfectly sized and bolts straight to the chassis.
