Legality of pre bent plexi glass

Dimensions
8in long edge red line
4.3/4 short edge green
2.5 slant edge blue
1.3/4 height

The peice will get cut and acording to the area of the peice we believe that this should be legal woth the slant but we would liek a ref or official to ensure us incase we get questioned about this.

Our question is, with this peice cut in half (across orange dots) can we have the (in guessing) 45 degree angle and not have to cut it off.
How we will be useing them is similar to picture 2 with the clear plastic


Ask the Official Q&A - everything else is mere opinion on this one on the forum.

I notice that you said “plexi glass”


Which would be illegal according to part e
Any legal plastic would be up for debate, so I would take lacsap’s advice and ask the offical Q&A

While last seasons q and as are not technically legal, the rule hasn’t changed so I don t see why the GDCs opinion would change.

The OP did indeed call the material plexiglass; however the vex field elements are actually made of polycarbonate, so using field elements as a source of material is ok as long as it meets thicknesses requirements.
