I need a new windshield for my side console walleye boat. A branch fell during a storm and broke the original one. I'm wondering if someone could tell me if there is a way to bend acrylic (I need somewhere around a 1/2" or so radius of curvature) without having a strip heater. Can it be done with a heat gun? Also, the cut edges will need to be sanded and polished (with a wheel or flame?). I can buy one from the boat manufacturer, but it will be close to $200, and this seems like a lot for what it is. Thanks!
