Will acrylic work for Vac. forming?

[Racedriver52]

Hey I want to make a case for my N64P before I get too far. I was wondering how acrylic would work for a case. If not what will work? Thanks for your help.

Yep.

Be sure to get it hot enough.

It should work, but acrylic sucks in general. Brittle, difficult to cut and cracks easily. However, it is clear, which is a plus.

If you want clear, go for PETG. Its high impact polyethylene, and vac forms quite well.

Don't use acrylic. It's just awful.
