These can be made in arbitrary 2d shapes by using a soldering iron to fuse the edges of two plastic sheets together but it s obviously a pretty tedious and finicky process.
Fusing plastic sheets together.
Methylene chloride or chloroform.
I show how to use a soldering iron to fuse plastic together.
It is pretty simple to set up and only takes a few seconds to fuse the plastic together.
If it is not continue ironing.
Peel back the waxed paper to see how the plastic fusing is going.
Polycarbonate is a clear colorless plastic often used as a replacement for glass.
Rob shows a clip of plastic laminating where heat fuses plastic to paper.
The plastic should be one coherent sheet.
There are two ways to glue polycarbonate sheets.
Plastic sheeting is notoriously hard to join tape is messy and glue won t stick.
It will probably take a bit of trial and error to get the exact speed right as soldering irons may heat up to different temperatures and plastics may be thicker or thinner.
Using an epoxide or fusing the sheets together.
Using epoxide glue for this purpose is a relatively simple procedure but fusing the sheets together is a little more interesting and can create a nearly invisible division.
