| Styrene Strength?
I've been tinkering with some aluminum I have on hand trying to make a scale version of the front winch bumper on my 1:1. It's not going as well as I'd hoped and I'm close to accepting that I'm not going to be able to make it how I'd like to. I have zero experience with styrene and was wondering how durable it is. My chassis is aluminum so I will be attaching to bumper to an aluminum cross member and the bumper will be used to mount a winch. Is styrene tough enough to winch my Jeep from? If I bash it into the occasional rock is it going to dent up or break? |

No it would not be tough enough.

Liar... Styrene is strong if you build it strong. |
