Plastic rules question for override

if my plastic is able to fit in a 4 x 8 area in one of its orientations within the 4x8 limit is it legal. Also just to clarify, if the plastic is bent into a 4x8 area but originally did not fit in the 4x8 area it is not legal correct?

It is not legal for it to be out of 4x8 when not bent, make it 4x8 when bent and not bent.

Before any bending, so when the plastic has just been cut from the sheet, it must fit in a 4x8 area. The size after bending does not matter.

Thr first question is yes,the second I have no idea

Correct (20 characters)

4 x 8 is total size, bent or unbent, and some Signature Events (is this still the correct name?) will ask for cut sheets. Cut sheets and prototypes/ plastic use evolution is also a great addition to a notebook to show the testing and process.

This is incorrect. The plastic sheet must start withing 4" x 8" and then can be bent outside that size at will.
