Hi I've been trying to make a wind deflector / windshield for my PFM.
First one was doing great until I drilled a hole for a rivet and it cracked... not near the hole in a totally different place... frustrating.
It wasn't bad so I used some packing tape to fix it, but decided to make another one.
Anyways, second one was way worse, it cracked in 3 places when I was cutting it with the jigsaw. I have it clamped on a piece of plywood to avoid vibrations etc.
Either I bought really crappy plexi, or maybe it's too thin? It's optix acrylic apparently about 3/32" thick
Thoughts? Thicker material? Or maybe buy some lexan? DIdn't think a little piece like this was going to be a pain or need to be super strong.
