sounds interesting.

only hard part i see here is working the plexi glass into the desired shape w/o breaking/cracking/warping/burning. it's a challenge. good luck man.

its all in the mold that you make i think. if the mold is good the ending effect /product should be good. its preety simple but hard at the same time
