    Hey, quick question! Can we use more than one 12" by 24" of plastic. We're building a basket so we can throw cubes to the other side of the fence.

    Nope, all plastic must be under .07in thick and has to be cut from a single 12 by 24 sheet

    Dang it @Rick TYler got me

    @JustinM @Rick TYler Is there a place that we can buy plastic that size?

    Robosource.net has both ABS and polycarbonate of that thickness.

    Non-functional decorations are not included in that single 12"x24" sheet of plastic. My team uses poly-carbonate to protect our decals in a purely decorative way and have more than a single 12"x24" sheet. You can also buy a 4'x'8 sheet and cut it into smaller 12"x24" sheets

    It might help you to get a much larger sheet or multiple sheets, since you will probably use more than the allowed amount over the course of the entire season. If you use 12x24 on your robot now and need a replacement for a damaged sheet or want to rebuild, the extra plastic will make a difference. Good luck!
