Default Plastruct .125 ABS Sheet

Anybody tried using this for axle mounted servo brackets? I can work with this much easier than metal right now without buying any additional tools. I just am not sure about the strength/rigidity of this product for the purpose.

Thanks ahead of time for the input.

.125 (1\8")might work it might be to flexible. 1\8" aluminum will be less flexible but if you design it right it should work. Let us know what you think.

Why don't you try carbon fiber? It's pretty easy to work with as well, but a LOT stronger.
