I am considering aluminum sheet, maybe 3/16". or possibly that hard plastic they use in cutting boards.


Polymetal/Alumapanel/Maxmetal. The sample was sheared rolled and braked by hand. A 6-7ft roller could be improvised with three pipes and skate board bearings.

I learned that a braked angle should be scored on the inside to crush the plastic core, as you can see.
